About St Martin of Tours | Forney, Texas
St.
Martin
of
Tours
Catholic
Church
has
served
the
people
of
Forney,
Talty,
Crandall,
and
surrounding
areas
since
1891.
Throughout
the
128
year
history,
the
strong
faith
and
selfless
sacrifice
of
the
parishioners
has
made
St.
Martin
of
Tours
a
special
place
that
lifelong
parishioners,
newcomers,
and
visitors
all
find
rare
and
uniquely
inviting.
Though
a
fire
destroyed
the
original
church
in
1929,
the
parish
quickly
rebuilt,
and
only
four
and
a
half
months
later,
constructed
and
dedicated
the
present
church.
Standing
“like
a
monument
on
the
prairie,”
the
“Church
on
The
Ridge” serves as a legacy of faith and perseverance of many deeply-rooted families who contributed to what remains and flourishes today.
Today,
St.
Martin
of
Tours
thrives
as
a
parish
with
over
700
registered
households
continuing
to
serve
as
strong
witness
to
the
community
.
.
.
Unfortunately,
our
current
facilities
do
not
meet
our
needs,
including
the
desire
to
worship
under
the
single
roof
of
a
beautiful,
traditional
church
and have a parish hall dedicated to forming families.
A
larger
church
is
now
necessary
as
we
welcome
new
members
and
as
we
strive
to
be
better
disciples
and
missionaries
of
Jesus
Christ.
Therefore,
we
move
forward
with
great
ambition
and
enthusiasm
for
a
comprehensive
parish
renewal
campaign.
Our
new
church
will
serve
as
the
centerpiece
and
a
visible
sign
of
our
parish
mission:
to
unveil
the
Eucharistic
Christ
so
that
the
faithful
know
their
identity
and
live
their
purpose. It is now incumbent upon us to give sacrificially to sustain and build upon the remarkable legacy of St. Martin of Tours.
