Since the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) DE/MD Synod partners with three synods overseas, St. Martin's as an ELCA congregation is a partner as well. St. Martin's has been privileged to host visitors from both Finland and Estonia in Annapolis. St. Martin's has provided financial support for projects in both countries and representatives from St. Martin's have visited the congregations in Nokia and Kihelkonna. In 2003, the synod began a relationship with the Mara Region of Tanzania and one of St. Martin's members visited the area that year. See the Global Missions bulletin board for updates

Members of St. Martin's may attend the ELCA Global Mission Event. This is a three-day weekend event with workshops that address concerns in areas of Global Mission Advocacy; Witness and Evangelism; and Justice, Peace, and Creation. It makes a wonderful family vacation as activities are planned for all ages. For more information on this event, contact the church office. Your participation is welcome and encouraged.

St. Martin's also offers a prayer chain through the Christian Life Committee. There is always someone available to pray for you or your family. Prayer requests may be made through the church office or the pew cards in the sanctuary. If you would like more information or would like to volunteer, call the Chair of the Christian life Committee.

Prayer Vigils are held twice during the year, in the Seasons of Advent and Lent. These are day long prayer sessions in the sanctuary where members of the congregation come in at scheduled times to pray in half hour increments. St. Martin's Day School students also participate. Prayer requests are received and form the basis for the community prayer. All are welcome and encouraged to participate.

Different forms of spiritual retreats have been offered over the years, depending on the needs and spirit of the congregation. Look for notices in the Sunday Bulletins and in Tabletalk.
