Feeding Bodies & Spirits

One Food Bag at a Time

At The Episcopal Church of St. Mary Magdalene & St. Martin (Sts. MM&M), we believe that love looks like something—and this summer, it looks a lot like rice, beans, canned veggies, and a whole lot of joy!


Our Outreach Ministry just kicked off another season of support for the Coral Springs Police Summer Camp, a six-week program for at-risk youth that gives kids a safe, enriching, and fun place to be during the summer months. For the past several years, Sts. MM&M has proudly partnered with the camp to provide daily snacks and weekly take-home food bags for every camper.


Why the take-home bags? Because we know that weekends can be tough for families, and our mission is to make sure that no child leaves camp worried about where their next meal will come from. Each week features a themed menu, and our first round of bags included staples like rice, beans, canned chicken, vegetables, and even breakfast and lunch items to keep tummies full and hearts happy.


It’s more than food—it’s a message: You matter. You’re loved. We’re here for you.


At Sts. MM&M, we love partnering with our city and serving side-by-side with others to build a stronger, more compassionate Coral Springs. If you’re looking for a church that lives its faith, packs a mean food bag, and throws in a smile or two while doing it—we hope you’ll come visit us!


Because at Sts. MM&M, faith gets to work.

Gaudete Sunday is not just about feeling brighter. It’s about deciding what kind of Church we will be. Because the Magnificat is clear: God lifts up the lowly.

Advent reminds us that courage isn’t loud: God meets fear with presence—Emmanuel—and calls ordinary people to take the next faithful step, together, in hope.

Last week, we talked about not sleepwalking through this season. This week, I think Advent presses us a little further: Where do I need to make room in our hearts?
