Brotherhood of St. Andrew
The St. Luke's Chapter of The Brotherhood of St. Andrew is pleased to announce their new officers for 2018:
 
Director:   Clarke Wood
Vice-Director:   Nelson Toebbe
Secretary:  Tim Bender
Treasurer:  John Speaker
 
Please give them your support!
 
Hot Breakfast
Breakfast this coming Sunday, October 22, will be provided by guest chefs, Ann & Rip Phillips.    

Please plan on joining everyone in Board Hall between 8:30am and 9:45 where you will not only enjoy great food but a time for fellowship. 

Organ Recital & Choral Evensong : Oct. 22 at 4pm
The first organ recital and Evensong of the Fall season is on October 22 at 4:00 pm.    Michael Messina, Trinity Church, Indianapolis, will present a 30 minute organ recital.  Choral Evensong will follow, featuring choral music of Julianna Horton.   A reception will follow in Board Hall.   
 
Please note the new start time of 4:00 pm.  Evensong is a wonderful, traditional service of prayer and music - a perfect service to invite a friend to experience the beauty and tranquility of St. Luke's. 
 
UPDATE: Wed. Bible Study
After spending a few weeks with I Kings, our Wednesday morning Bible study group feels like it's reading the 2nd book in a trilogy, so we'll be moving back in time to I & II Samuel, starting October 25th.   
 
Please join us in Board Hall from 9:45 - 11:00 as we explore the fascinating history of our faith, the formation of the Israelite monarchy, and the emergence of the prophets.   
 
It's fascinating, great fellowship, and we grow in our understanding of and relationship with God as we read scripture.   
 
We will get to I & II Kings once we've finished with I & II Samuel. 
 
Centering Prayer
Since the Centering Prayer group just had a retreat, Centering Prayer will not take place in
October.   
 
We will resume the normal schedule in the month of November, November 28 at 6pm
 
We meet every fourth Tuesday of the month.
 
St. Luke's Lay Pastoral Care Ministry
will hold their Fall retreat on Sunday, October 22, after the 10am service at the home of Jon & Linda Siegrist.  
 
Please pray for the lay ministers who continue to serve those in need.

Youth Outreach
The youth of St. Luke's and the youth of Anchorage Presbyterian will do another scavenger hunt at Kroger to gather food for the families of Eastern Area Community Ministries.  
 
We will meet at Anchorage Presbyterian Fellowship Hall on
Sunday, November 5 at 5pm to enjoy some cheesy pizza then head to Kroger Middletown.  
 
We will return to AP to assemble the Thanksgiving baskets with food. The activity should conclude by 8am.
  
Thanksgiving Turkeys for EACM
The Youth will be collecting Kroger gift cards to purchase Thanksgiving turkeys for EACM through November 13 for families to purchase turkeys.

There will be baskets located in both narthex's for gift cards and/or contributions. Other items may be donated ( click here to see the flyer).

Many thanks for your help!

Winter Foyer Groups Sign Ups
Foyer Groups are groups of 6-8 (could be more) people that meet for a meal (at someone's home or at a restaurant). Every person (or couple) takes a turn arranging a meeting.  After the Winter meetings, new groups will begin in the Spring.
 
Besides having fun and getting to know each other, Foyer Groups offer an excellent opportunity to discuss where our church is now, where it is going and how we feel.   Of course, the groups have no assigned topics and people may just want to let the conversations ramble and flow, laugh and have a good time.
 
Sign-ups begin this weekend and will run through November 5 when sign-up sheets will be taken up.   Call Calvin Riley Pinney: 245 1623 or Caroline Eddleman: 253-0135 for information or questions.
 
St. Luke's Book Club
YOU ARE INVITED to St Luke's Book Club! Our book selection for November is  Camino Island by John Grisham. Camino Island is a crime fiction thriller novel and is a departure from Grisham's main subject of legal thrillers and focuses on stolen rare books.

MEETING INFO: Lyman House, November 14th, SECOND (2nd) Tuesday monthly at 6:30 PM for 2+- hours of rousing conversations and introductions to books of almost every genre. At the end of each meeting, we discuss books for the next month's selection, so bring your suggestions with you.

Save the Date! Yule Log Lighting & Carol Sing 
The Anchorage Garden Club is sponsoring the Yule Log Lighting and Carol Sing at Hobbs Chapel, December 3 at 6pm with the snow/rain date Monday, December 4 at 6pm.  
 
Be sure to bring candles and guards. Be a part of a longstanding Anchorage tradition and join us for an old-fashioned, good time!
