Our Annual Martin Craft Fair is April 13^th! You will begin to see lots of signs in the area beginning April 6^th! We need you to invite guests to join you to shop on April 13^th, but we need your help in other ways too! Read below and help support our church fundraiser. All proceeds go to the church budget and the backpack ministry. Your help is appreciated in making this a successful event for our church and our dedicated vendors!

VOLUNTEERS: We need volunteers to help at the bake sale, greeters, vendor angels to take care of them, etc. This Sunday you can sign up to be a volunteer at the Craft Fair Station in Wooton Hall or contact Carol Bush at 817-455-5478.

BAKERS: Our bake sale is always been a success because our fabulous Martin bakers always provide delicious goodies. Please consider baking pies, cakes, brownies, breads, muffins, etc. and less cookies as we have three vendors that will be selling cookies. You can drop off baked goods on Friday, April 12 in the supply room of Building C between 9:00 – 4:00. Questions, contact Mary Gladstone at 817-228-5679.

GIFT CARD DONATIONS: We are asking members to purchase gift cards and donate for our Gift Card Giveaway. You can drop gift cards off at the Craft Fair Station or give to Chickie Williams. We encourage you to purchase from local businesses

Do you have a heart for mentoring the youth? Would that feeling change if those youth were incarcerated?

TORCH is one of the three elements of Kairos Prison Ministry. Its focus is solely on the

Incarcerated youth.

In the journey toward starting a Torch community at the Gainesville State School in

Gainesville TX, we’re looking for a few good folks. If you have an interest, there will

be an initial orientation meeting at Martin to present the program and reveal the many

ways there are to be involved in youth prison ministry. Come Join Us !!!
