Help Us Flower the Cross BEFORE Easter!
Saturday, April 11, all day until 7 pm
The flowering of our sanctuary cross has long been an Easter tradition at Saint Luke's. We will still have a cross you can help flower, but this year we'll do it BEFORE Easter so that the entire community can enjoy seeing it on our front lawn! This opportunity is open to the entire community - especially to those who live within walking or running distance to the church...so spread the word! And click here for all the details!
Would you like to help keep our church family connected?
Staying connected to each other has perhaps never been more important. While our Deacons are doing great ministry with their flocks, we know there is more that we, as a church family, can do. We have devised a system to help ensure that our members, particularly those who may need extra encouragement during this time, feel connected as a church family. If you would like to assist in this effort to stay connected, please volunteer on our web site, or contact Shannon Dill, Mary Martin or Cathie Rogers.
Do You Need Assistance?
The Board of Deacons of the church has mobilized care and caregivers for anyone who needs assistance during this time of isolation, like shopping and other errands. Contact Pastor Shannon Dill or Loving Care Committee deacon chair Emily Ritzler for more information.
