Read a message from our vicar, Fr. Tom Luck, about Pentecost and Pride.
Episcopal churches nationwide will recognize Pride Month throughout June with special events to celebrate and affirm LGBTQ+ people, and to raise awareness of increasing anti-LGBTQ+ sentiment.
“It’s really important for Christians to be actively, vocally affirming and visible in Pride Month. It’s a time to be fabulous, to be joyful and to celebrate,” the Rev. Cameron Partridge, rector of St. Aidan’s Episcopal Church in San Francisco, Diocese of California, and a trans man, told Episcopal News Service. “I’m looking forward to continuing to live out our witness as a church in support of the community and as agents of good news and transformers of this world.”

Sunday Service
We extend a warm welcome to those who are single, married, divorced, widowed and LGBTQIA.
We extend a warm welcome to babies, toddlers and pets. Saint Martin's is the only dog-friendly church in Mason County, and congregants and visitors are invited to bring their canine companions to services.

We welcome you whether you sing loudly or hum to yourself. We don't care if the last time you attended church was Christmas Eve twenty years ago. You are welcome here.
The homily by our priest, The Rev. Dr. Tom Luck, is typically followed by a time for comments, questions and group discussion. Music is joyful and beautiful.
Special Worship Opportunities
Besides gathering together on Sundays at 11 AM, St. Martin's also celebrates many feast days throughout the liturgical year. Ash Wednesday, Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter are observed in the Spring. We have a tradition of celebrating Lessons and Carols at Christmas, singing many beloved carols of the season. Each year we have a special Summer worship service along the Llano River and many enjoy the worship, fellowship, food and the river.
