Parish Groups
There are many groups in our parish that aren’t attached to any of the staffed ministries but are valuable ministries staffed by volunteers and sometimes associated with a national organization. Our parish receives valuable financial support from their many fundraisers but, even more importantly, they also bring the parish together with many valuable “fun raisers” and community events.
Women’s Alliance
The Saint Martin of Tours Women’s Alliance is a space where women can come together to grow, serve and thrive as individuals and community members. This is accomplished throughthe three pillars of service, spirituality and social connection. By building relationships amongthe members of the group, we will work to enrich ourselves while strengthening the communityof the St. Martin of Tours Parish and School.
Men's Club
The Men’s Club brings men of the parish together to socialize and to support the parish through service and fundraising. They sponsor our annual parish Festival and take the lead in planning along with many other parish groups. They also sponsor the Sunday donuts and hospitality after the Sunday morning masses. They support many different parish ministries and programs as needs arise.
Italian Catholic Federation
The Italian Catholic Federation is an organization dedicated to building family spirit and bringing men and women of all ages to share their cultural heritage and catholic faith. Our parish branch 391 sponsors many activities and events that benefit not only the parish but the wider community as well. The ICF meets on the first Tuesday of the month for dinner and meeting. All are welcome.
Women’s Book Group/ Women’s Retreat
The Women’s Ministry Book Club invites women to share in discussions of an inspirational or spiritual book on the 4th Tuesday of each month. This is an opportunity for women of faith to connect with one another, particularly around their love of literature. For more information, go to the Women’s Book Group page.
Parish Scouting Program
St. Martin of Tours sponsors many Boy and Girl Scout Troops. Our scouting programs focus on values, education, faith formation, citizenship, friendship. Our Scouts serve the community in many ways. For more information, visit their webpage.
Cursillo
Cursillo is a lay movement in the Catholic Church with the purpose of reminding us what it means to be part of a Christian Community. Participants experience the joy of being part of a Christian community in our parish and encourage growth. “Make a friend, be a friend, and bring a friend to Christ” is the motto.
