The Rector’s Bible Study

The Rector’s Bible Study

The Rector’s Bible Study – Fall 2025

Join St. Martin’s rector, Alan Bentrup, for a weekly journey through The Big Story of God: Walking Through Scripture, Tradition, and Life. Starting September 10, we’ll gather each Wednesday at 10:30 am in the new conference room and online to explore the sweep of God’s work in the world, from creation to covenant, from prophets to parables, from resurrection to the Church today.

This year’s study will ground us in our Episcopal way of reading the Bible, holding together Scripture, tradition, and reason. Each week includes teaching, conversation, and space for your questions. All are welcome, whether you’re opening the Bible for the first time or have studied it for years.

When & Where:
Wednesdays, 10:30 am – Conference Room & Online
Begins September 10, 2025

To join online, please fill out the form below.

You only need to fill it out once. You will be sent the Zoom link upon submitting the form. Thank you!

Coat Drive

Coat Drive

Now through the end of November we are collecting new and gently used coats, hats, scarves, gloves, etc. for the homeless served by Union Gospel Mission of Tarrant County.

Please drop off your coats on Sundays to the bin at the back of the church.

If you can’t drop off on Sundays, please call Anika Rinker in the church office at 817-431-2396 or email her at stmartin@stmartininthefields.org to arrange a time to drop off.

November 11 is the feast of our patron saint, St. Martin, who tore his cloak and gave half of it to a homeless man. We remember his compassion and we serve our brothers and sisters in Christ by donating coats for the cold winter months. 

Episcopal Youth Community

St. Martin’s Youth, aka EYC (Episcopal Youth Community), is a collective group of 6th-12th graders who meet from 4 – 5 pm on Sundays during the school year. We finish with evening prayer (open to everyone) at 5 pm.

Blessing Bag Ministry

Blessing Bag Ministry

Blessing Bags 3rd Sundays

On the third Sundays of each month we will be making Blessing Bags for the homeless.

This youth led ministry needs lots of hands to make it successful – so come on by the small parish hall after the 10:30 service and help us assemble the bags!

We’ll make 50 bags each month. Half of those will be taken to the JPS Street Medicine Team. The rest are for YOU – our wonderful members to take!

What are they?

Blessing bags are full of necessities such as non-perishable food, hygeine items, etc. The idea is to keep several in your car and hand them to those in need on the streets. The problem of homelessness persists in our city, and these bags are a way to show God’s love to our neighbor.

How can I help?

Each bag costs about $3.75. So this ongoing ministry needs your donations! You can visit our Amazon Wish List online and order items. Or you can purchase items wherever you shop and drop them off at church. You can also donate money through our online giving page. And you can come and help on 3rd Sundays!

Travel-size items needed are:

  • Toothbrush
  • Toothpaste
  • Deodorant
  • Soap
  • Shampoo
  • Comb
  • Hand Wipes
  • Granola Bars
  • Trail Mix
  • Hand Warmers
  • Bottled Water

Donate money online. Please choose “Blessing Bags” from the drop down menu.
