A Note from Pastor Melissa - October 24, 2024

“Oh, we are actually needing to find a new church. We found out we’re not really welcome at the one we had been going to when we asked to have our baby dedicated. They said they wouldn’t pray over a marriage and family that wasn’t a man and a woman.”

St. Luke's Week in Review

Come Out with Pride 2024

We had such a beautiful experience at Come Out With Pride this year! St. Lukers of all ages showed up in love for the LGBTQ+ community, truly living out our purpose beyond the ballot box and embodying Christ’s love in a powerful way. We'll see you at Pride again next year!

St. Luke's Kids + Care Ministry = ❤️

During Wednesday night programming last week, our St. Luke's Kids learned how to be a good friend by practicing good listening and being careful not to jump to conclusions when there is conflict. They had fun putting their faith into practice as our Parish Nurse Lisa Crump shared about the impact of their recent donation drive of items collected for those who are homebound.
