Last year, St. Martin de Porres implemented the following weather policy:
If Warren Consolidated Schools cancel classes because of the weather, St. Martin de Porres parish offices will also be closed, and there will be NO MASS that day (except Funerals). Please watch your TV for this information, we will also post it here.
HAPPY CONFIRMATION DAY!
At this past weekend’s Saturday Mass, we welcomed
Auxiliary Bishop Donald Hanchon who administered
the Sacrament of Confirmation to twenty of our young
people. This sacrament completed the three
Sacraments of Initiation:
Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist.

Our Mission:
We, the parishioners of St. Martin de Porres of Warren,
reflecting the qualities of our patron saint, strive to
proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ, celebrate the mystery
of God’s love in our midst, and serve one another and the wider
human community, thus continuing the Mission of Jesus Christ.

Welcome to St. Martin de Porres Church
Details about upcoming events can be found here or in the weekly
Parish Bulletin
Dear candidates,
We, the parish community of St. Martin de Porres will witness your Confirmation, which is an affirmation of your faith and the outpouring of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. You are not only the Catholic Church of tomorrow. You are a very important part of the Catholic Church today.
Always remember: your faith is such a precious gift. The Catholic Christian life is not an easy one, but it is one you are called to live out 24/7. Remember the message that years of religious education and formation have taught you: Catholicism is a journey, with a destination far beyond this world.
Your confirmation is not a graduation; rather, it is a calling for you to choose new and exciting ways to serve the Church. Be involved in your parish community so that you will meet others who share your commitment to Jesus Christ. You can help them help you to live in His love. Now is the time to serve your Church! As an altar server, as a lector or as a Minister of Holy Communion. We are even developing a social ministry outreach that you can be a part of!
When it may seem more convenient to stay home on the weekend, remember that when you stand and profess your faith, you will state your belief in the Catholic Church, which calls you to worship with us every Sunday and Holy Day. As you come to the Table of the Lord, realize that He is truly present, loving you and living inside of you when you receive Him. Come every week to give thanksgiving, the true meaning of the word, “Eucharist.” Come and be nourished, then go out to make Jesus Christ known and visible in the world.
Pray. Talk with God daily. Give God five minutes when you wake up and five minutes before you go to bed. Come to the Sacrament of Reconciliation at least once a year. Be a living and active part of your parish!
This is your spiritual home, and we are here for you. We are proud to have walked with you to this new level of your faith journey. We pray for you! We believe in you! May the Holy Spirit you will receive always be with you!
Fr, Nick Zukowski
