Through my involvement with Saint Martin over the past 12 years, I have seen it over and over again first-hand. Whether it is seeing our alums all over Cleveland transforming our workforce, or their return to campus to mentor our President current students, it is truly special to see how our kids have Chaz Napoli, ext. 363 used their Saint Martin education to serve the greater good in Vice President, our region. Corporate Work Study Program Shameka Jones Taylor, ext. 288 A shining example of this is 2008 graduate Gary Martin. In 2004, as part of Saint Martin’s first class, Gary was taking a Co-Principals Dominic Perry John Fay, ext. 323 chance on this brand new Cristo Rey Network school in the Ryan Hurley, ext. 328 forgotten St. Clair-Superior neighborhood. Upon graduating with Saint Martin’s initial group, Gary left his final words in the 2008 class yearbook: Vice President, Mission Virginia Malloy, ext. 381 I, Gary Martin, leave you the last thing I ever wrote as a student and I must end it Vice President, Advancement on a ‘poetic’ note so my words can be remembered. It’s hard not to choke over Laura Rayburn, (216) 361-0003 my verbs because over the past 4 years, our actions have all been together. We Chief Financial Officer ate, we cried, we laughed. Our school days and work days consumed us and Martha Solarz, ext. 369 unified us as years went by. The memories of those who left our class have been Director of Admissions and the topic of discussion for some time now. No offense to them but they missed Enrollment out on what we were able to grow into, what we strived for and achieved. Our Aundria Hawkins, (216) 881-5406 goals in life may still be similar but their goals are not rooted in a tradition and a legacy we now control. Only we, as the class of ’08, can start to determine what Dean of Students Marcus Prewitt, ext. 211 colleges and the rest of the world think of the education we received here. We are a core of strong men and women with strong minds and as we leave I ask Main Office: that we not forget Saint Martin’s but that we pass the word about all it has. 6202 St. Clair Avenue Cleveland, Ohio 44103 Phone: (216) 881-1689 Gary, a graduate of Fairfield University in Connecticut, and now Fax: (216) 881-8303 a Senior Business Development Analyst at Lincoln Electric, has www.saintmartincleveland.org lived true to those words since the day he left our community as a student. He has stayed connected as one of our strongest ambassadors.

EL SALVADOR In early June, recent graduates Enrique Freeman ’18 and Diamond Allen ’18 joined the Saint Dominic Parish High School Youth Group on their annual immersion trip to El Salvador. Saint Dominic Parish (located in Shaker Heights) sends delegations to El Salvador five times each year (including the youth trip in June) to visit and build relationships with their sister parish and community of Santo Domingo church and school in the village of Chiltiupan. This year their pastor, Fr. Tom Fanta, graciously asked theology teacher Erin Conway, who also serves as the High School Youth Minister at Saint Dominic, to invite two Saint Martin students to join the trip. Theology teacher Erin Conway and 2018 graduates The goal of the youth trip was to have the young people Enrique Freeman and Diamond Allen in El Salvador learn about the reality of life in El Salvador (including the history of the civil war) while also getting to know their Salvadoran brothers and sisters. Along with 10 other high school and college students, Diamond and Enrique participated in a variety of activities over the course of the five day trip — visiting two schools, making several home visits, taking a tour of the cooperative farm started in partnership with Saint Dominic, playing in a basketball game against the teenagers of Santo Domingo school, visiting the site of Oscar Romero’s assassination, and putting on a carnival for over 300 local elementary students. Diamond reflected on her experience,“In that moment, I felt God’s presence thanking me for being there in that time and space. In that moment, I felt loved and appreciated because Diamond finds time for volleyball with a new friend I almost didn’t go to El Salvador, but I’m glad that I did and blessed that I had this experience.” Enrique spreading kindness by Enrique exploring the village of Chiltiupan passing out candy and treats 4 Saint Martin de Porres High School Fall 2018 News SCHOOL NEWS The unmistakable Golden Dome of Notre Dame L to R: Iliya Rosser, Demeshia Darmond, Cali Good, and Cherish McNeil NOTRE DAME Then in July, four students joined Vice President of Mission, Virginia Malloy, and headed west to the University of Notre Dame for “ND Vision,” thanks to the generosity of the Cleveland Notre Dame Club.

  • Cooking with the Saints November
    Meet St. Martin de Porres Martin was born in Lima, Peru in 1579 and had a tough childhood. His parents never married each other and after the birth of a sister, his father abandoned the family. Martin was bi-racial and reared in poverty, locked into a low level of Lima’s society. When he was 12, his mother apprenticed him to a barber-surgeon. Martin learned how to cut hair and also how to draw blood, care for wounds, and prepare and administer medicines. After a few years, Martin applied to the Dominicans to be a “lay helper,” not feeling himself worthy to be a religious brother. After nine years, the example of his prayer, penance, charity and humility led the community to request him to make full religious profession. Many of his nights were spent in prayer; his days were filled with nursing the sick and caring for the poor. It was particularly impressive at that time that he treated all people regardless of their color, race, or status. He was instrumental in founding an orphanage, took care of slaves brought from Africa, and managed the daily alms of the monastery with practicality, as well as generosity. Side by side with his daily work in the kitchen, laundry, and infirmary, Martin’s life reflected God’s extraordinary gifts and many extraordinary miracles took place in Martin's life: ecstasies that lifted him into the air, light filling the room where he prayed, bi-location, miraculous knowledge, instantaneous cures, and a remarkable rapport with animals. He was a good friend of another saint of Peru, Rose of Lima.
