New Spiritual Deepening Group Forming

The Wednesday morning spiritual deepening group has been meeting at 7 a.m. all year and would like to share the experience with others.

Therefore we would like to start another group, which would meet at a later time, perhaps Sunday evening at 6 or 7...or whenever is best.

Would you like to be part of our Faith Family Hospitality Ministry without leaving your home or office?

Can you send email? You are qualified to serve as FFH sign-up coordinator!

This is  a wonderful opportunity to get a bird's-eye view of how the week of hosting our guests functions, as well as the chance to get to know our volunteers.  

The evite program we use is Sign-Up Genius, and the current coordinator is happy to work with you while you learn. This takes a couple of hours to set up the month before the guests will arrive and about 1-2 hours per week until the hosting session ends. The week before hosting may require more time signing up volunteers who do not use a computer.

Contact Susan Groeger or Mary Lynn Jones if interested.
We believe that each of us is made in God's image - beautiful and beloved, unique and whole.

The Vestry and Clergy have recently reflected on whether St. Luke's is being called to become a "Believe Out Loud" church, that is, a church which openly welcomes Christians who identify themselves as GBLT (gay, bisexual, lesbian, transgender, etc.).

The Believe Out Loud program starts with a process where there is a time of discernment for the congregation, so that the Parish can explore together how our church could be a more welcoming community.

St. Luke's will embark on this first step -- the discernment -- once we resume our regular schedule in the fall. Read more
