Christian Community Service

The St. Martin families have a unique opportunity to teach our children and help others through Christian Community Service. Each month a local charity benefits from our generosity. While we try to make it simple and choose items that are easy to "pick up" during your normal shopping trips, I hope that you allow your children to be involved. It is more meaningful when our children understand that the supplies they choose allow another classroom to have an art program or that the toys they choose may be the only gift under the tree for a struggling family.

Please contact me with any questions.
