Mission Statement

In one of the best known Psalms - Psalm 23, we hear, "my cup overflows". Those words are very true here at Saint Martin de Porres Catholic Church in the Kingdom of North Philadelphia. Our cup overflows with many blessings from our Awesome God. Join us!

As members of Saint Martin de Porres Parish of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia we seek

  • to worship in word and sacrament
  • to proclaim and live the radical Gospel message of Christ
  • to develop a loving and caring faith community committed to the principle of social justice
  • to be a strong Catholic evangelizing presence to all people and especially the African-American community

We are challenged to strive for spiritual growth, to embrace the Gospel message and to make a difference in the world. We also seek to fulfill the mission love, peace and mutual respect by:


  • inspiring one another spiritually, emotionally and morally
  • developing open and on-going conversation within our community
  • bringing one another to a deeper awareness of God's love and sense of their own discipleship
  • incorporating the values, teachings, and traditions of our African-American heritage into our prayer and worship

Do You Work With People who need help applying for SSI DISABILITY? Community Legal Services (CLS), Philadelphia Legal Assistance (PLA) & the law firm of Pepper Hamilton, LLP are launching an SSI Application Project to help people apply for SSI. Clinics will be held monthly.

In PA, just 1 in 3 initial SSI applications are approved. Any help to ensure an application is as complete and accurate as possible can improve a person’s chances of quick approval, without the lengthy wait for an appeal hearing.

We are seeking community partners that work with people with disabilities, to connect people needing to apply for SSI with the Project. We will be providing free legal assistance in filing SSI applications.

For more information, or to reserve space for a client at one of the upcoming clinics, email applyforSSI@clsphila.org or call 215-981-3726

We offer our prayers and sympathy to the families of Carl Brooks and Laurie Ann Booker, who both recently passed away. May they rest in peace.
