St. Martin's Giving Tuesday 2018
Imagine neighborhood
teens looking for a safe space to hang out, chat, meet with mentors, form peace
circles but not having such a place to accommodate them aside from their home
schools (when they are open).
Think about the local elderly needing a nearby accessible place where they can gather, share a meal, receive valuable information on their safety, their health, their economic needs, share their stories, triumphs and struggles, but not enough places exist to host them.
Envision artists-performing and fine artists, young and old, of varying ethnicities, identities, abilities-also needing a location to create, express, share their art, teach their craft, but most of those locations are in other parts of the city or suburbs.
And what about the LGBTQA community needing sanctuaries anywhere/everywhere but not having nearly enough centers or churches to gather, celebrate, meditate, or worship.
We need such places for all
the above...we need SAINT MARTIN'S!!
We have been busy. But ain’t no stopping us now! We want our St.
Martin’s, your St. Martin’s, to thrive! Will you help us continue our
legacy into the future? It takes love, it takes heart, it takes work, it
takes prayer, and it takes money to sustain churches like St. Martin’s in urban
communities like Austin. We have much love, a whole lot of heart, we
work hard, and we pray without ceasing; yet, we need your financial
support.
