Wed. AM Bible Study
Our Wednesday morning Bible study turns next to The Gospel of Mark, the shortest and in some ways simplest of the four gospels.
We will start our exploration on April 5
th, from 9:45 - 11:00am in Board Hall, led by Father Michael. Consensus among scholars is that Mark was the first gospel written, making it the earliest comprehensive witness to Jesus' life, ministry, death, and resurrection.
Please come and be a part of this exciting opportunity to learn more about our Christian story and how it applies to our daily lives.

If you need child care, please contact the church office in advance and we will gladly provide it. Come enjoy the fellowship and participate in outreach.
In 2011, St. Luke's received the Childfriend of the Year award from Home of the Innocents for all the support we have given them over these many years. Let's generously support the Home again this year!
