Outreach

- Parish Ministries

We believe that every person is created in the image of God and deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. The Outreach Ministries at St. Martin de Porres help fulfill the Lord’s call to care for those in need. Our parish will continue to collect items for local food pantries throughout the year, rotating between
Neighbors Nourishing Neighbors of Prosper and Little Elm Area Food Bank. Thank you for your continued generosity and for being a living sign of Christ’s love in our community.
