Martin's Bread

Martin's Bread was launched in October 2019 at the St. Martin de Porres National Shrine in Memphis, Tennessee. This ministry shares homemade biscuits with any guest at the St. Martin de Porres National Shrine on the 3rd day of every month. If you’re in the Memphis area, join the Shrine on the third of every month for Martin’s Bread.

The bread is distributed at 8:30 a.m. outside the Shrine entrance.  Coffee and fellowship are also shared. Martin's Bread is also distributed through charitable organizations like Catholic Charities.
In January 2022 Martin's Bread Outreach was launched.  A $500 check will be taken to a charity along with some bread.
