The 28th Annual Joy of Giving Market hosted by the Episcopal Church Women of St. Martin's (ECW) marks the beginning of the holiday season. With more than 90 high-end merchants at the Market, shoppers can find the perfect gifts for all the special people on their Christmas list. There will be stylish clothing, one-of-a-kind accessories, jewelry, unique home décor items, and delicious food items from the ECW Pantry, along with daily silent auctions. The Joy of Giving Market is the primary fundraiser for ECW's outreach grants, which benefit organizations in the community that serve those in need.

Bagby Parish Hall

Rev. Dr. Jim Jackson, former Senior Pastor at Chapelwood United Methodist Church, will discuss how Christians can be faithful to God in a world that is not. From the first disciples, the task has been a challenge. Join Jim as he leads a three-week class examining Peter's two epistles, seeking insight and inspiration for holy living.

Accepting donations through Thursday, November 15
The Island

Each semester, our high school Life Group spends a Sunday with our friends at Church in the Field to worship with them and serve a meal. Our hope is to share joy through the worship of God, breaking of bread and provision of God for the needs of those with less. With that idea in mind, donations are being accepted for gently used or new blankets, jackets and long sleeve shirts. Thank you!

Make a Donation for Christmas Poinsettias
 
It is a tradition at St. Martin's to have Christmas poinsettias decorating The Church and Old Church as we celebrate this special holy season. Parishioners are invited to make a donation for these beautiful flowers in memory of a loved one who has passed away or in thanksgiving for blessing of living family members or friends.
