| - St Martin's Church is a part of the Church of England on Boundary Road in Plaistow, Newham, East London. It was built in 1894 as a mission church, with the foundation stone laid on 28 June that year by Henrietta Pelham-Clinton (née Hope), Dowager Duchess of Newcastle and widow of the 6th Duke of Newcastle - she was a major benefactress in the area and also funded the opening of St Thomas' Roman Catholic Church in Woodford the following year. Until 1997 its parish hall was in timber, with a World War Two bomb shelter attached - that year the firm Cottrell and Vermeulen refurbished the hall and added a community building and housing. With the three churches of St Mary's Church, Plaistow, St Matthias’ Church, Canning Town and St Philip and St James’ Church, Plaistow, it formed part of the Parish of the Divine Compassion until 19 October 2017. . The Parish of the Divine Compassion then ceased to exist, and three new parishes were formed: 1) St Matthias Canning Town, 2) St Philip and St James and St Mary's, Plaistow, 3) St Martin Plaistow. From October 2017, the Divine Compassion parish was divided into three: St Philip's and St James and St Mary's was one parish. St Matthias became a second parish, and St Martin's became a separate parish for the first time in many decades. There followed two years of interim ministry under the Rev Canon Ann Easter, and on 2 May 2019 Rev Canon Jeanette Meadway was collated, inducted and installed as Vicar of St Martin's. In July 2019 regular Masses in Portuguese were started at St Martin's Church by Fr Marco Lopes, an assistant curate in the neighbouring parish of the Holy Trinity, East Ham. In March 2021 regular Masses in Spanish were also started. In two years, regular attendance on Sundays grew from 30 to 150 people. The parish was in vacancy from the 3rd January 2022 until the 7th September, when Fr Marco Lopes was collated as vicar. At the same occasion, the Rt Revd Saulo de Barros, the former Bishop of the Amazon, was installed as assistant priest of the parish with the goal of furthering the work with Portuguese speakers. (en)
