St. Martin's is a friendly welcoming church firmly rooted in our local community. We serve the people of South Wye, following Jesus' instruction to feed the hungry and welcome the stranger. The church is involved in practical ways with providing hot meals for the vulnerable and the elderly, being a collection point for donations for the local Foodbank, for refugee charities and for the Red Box project. We also seek to offer spiritual support to our community, through prayer, regular worship, support for local schools and at times of important change in families. Our ministry to the bereaved and grieving as well as to those celebrating a marriage or wishing to baptise a child is part of our Christian response to God's love for his children.
