To love one another, share in our
abundance, and welcome all into our midst as we provide both spiritual
and material food to the spiritually and materially hungry.
We the parishioners of St. Martin of Tours, a Roman Catholic Church
parish founded in the year 1840, in Valley City, Ohio and part of the

into our midst as we provide both spiritual and material food to the
spiritually and materially hungry.
- To encourage, practice, and uphold the values encompassed in
family and community life, respecting life in all its stages,
recognizing the dignity of each person as a unique gift of God.
- To educate and develop our youth and adult brothers and sisters
in Christ in the tradition, doctrine, and values of the Catholic
Church through faith, actions, and words.
- To come together as children of God through social activities
and other gatherings.
