Calvary Baptist Church and St. Luke's Episcopal Church will join together in a celebration of the legacy of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on Sunday at 4 p.m. at St. Luke's Church.

Baptist, Episcopal, Jewish, Catholic, and Presbyterian clergy will lead the interfaith community service, which will include music, prayers, and songs. A potluck dinner will follow in the church hall.

This event replaces the annual Martin Luther King service previously held at Calvary Baptist in honor of the late civil rights icon.

Polar plunges at Main Beach in East Hampton and Beach Lane in Wainscott on New Year’s Day accomplish many things: bracing and exhilarating starts to the year, the company of many hundreds of friends and fellow townspeople, and a chance to secure bragging rights that extend well into 2026. But most important, each serves as a critical fund-raiser for food pantries.

Support Where It’s Most Needed

Soon after moving to Water Mill with her family in 2015, Marit Molin became aware of a largely unacknowledged population underpinning the complicated Hamptons economy. That led her to create Hamptons Community Outreach, which is dedicated to meeting basic critical needs to help break cycles of poverty.
