Father Chris Clements said in his sermon of January 17th, 2021, that of all the churches he has known, St. Martin’s-in-the-Fields “is one of the most alive, Spirit-filled, and welcoming. It is a treasure, or in Scriptural words, a pearl of great price. And so if we fail to support and nurture it, we will lose something that cannot be replaced, and I think we will be forever sorry.”
