Sundays at 10:30 am in the Parking Lot
We offer a live-streamed service on Sunday mornings at 10:30 am with Holy Communion for worshipers in their vehicles in our parking lot.
Parishioners are invited to drive-in to St. Martin’s, park, and while remaining in your vehicle, watch our service live on your tablet or smartphone, or listen on FM channel 87.9 on your radio. Following the Great Thanksgiving, our clergy and Eucharistic Ministers will come to the parking lot and distribute the Sacrament to each driver. Drivers will distribute the cups to others in the vehicle as needed.
We have special gluten-free communion cups that are all-in-one, and will never be handled without gloves and face masks worn. They will be consecrated, and when you get them, you simply take out the host first from the bottom section, and then unseal the top for the wine. These you’ll administer to yourself and your family. To see pictures of how this is done, click here, and scroll through the pictures at the top of the page. There are written instructions further down.
The communion cups will be collected as you leave the parking lot and taken to the Sacristy so they can be reverently cleaned and recycled.
