Kudos to Penny Uhlenbrock and her sacrifice of time and talent AND the many spectacular volunteers who helped with VBS this week. Teaching, crafts, set up, clean up, food prep, serving or praying, YOU made a difference! It has been a great success with more than 35 plus children attending. Many seeds have been planted in their hearts.

St. Luke's receives 4 cents per pound for the clothing we collect.

We earned $486.24 for 2021 YTD donations.

The Clothing Shed

All the clothes you've been stashing in the corner of your spare room can now be brought to the Clothing Shed at the back of the church parking lot. With many of the thrift stores not accepting donations or having limited hours, it's a great place to donate gently used clothing and you'll be helping those in need, too!

Please tie the clothes into a bag (do not use boxes or put clothing in the shed un-bagged) and put in the slot to keep them safe and dry.

We've Got Forms

Do you need to request building use? Suggest a building repair? Request a refund for purchases made? Ask for a shut-in or hospital visit? In the outer office, next to the cafe door, you'll find a wall file with a variety of forms to help with these and other issues. Find the right form, fill it out, then place your completed form in Jim, Dan or Kathy's mailbox. Thank you!

New Office Hours

St. Luke's office is now open Monday - Thursday 9:00 - 4:00 and closed Fridays.

Scheduling Events

Summertime brings more events at the church. So, it's important to check with the office before scheduling meetings, requesting sound, music or use of church property to see if the space is available and to reserve your space. Be sure to complete a Building Request From (available in the church office) before you begin to plan your event or meeting.
