Saint Luke's Episcopal Church welcomes you to visit us
and join with us in worship and fellowship! Know that we welcome you, not just
to our home on the web, but to our home in the real world. The church in this
day and age is about creating real relationships in the real world
(not just virtual ones) and physical and tangible experiences of faith
alongside others in community and we invite you to come and join us.
We would love to hear your story.
And to share a little of our story, we are a hospitable and welcoming group of Christians
who gather to worship, learn, discuss current issues from a Christian
perspective, serve the community through outreach, and follow the Risen Lord
Jesus Christ. Our congregation was founded in 1832 and currently has
approximately 350 communicants.
Some of us grew up in the Episcopal Church; many of us
come from another denominational background. Others are new to the church
altogether.
We accept and welcome people from all places on their
spiritual journeys. Coming from such different backgrounds, we have many
perspectives on liturgy, Biblical interpretation, and current issues in our city
and in the world. As a community, we work to ensure that these differences
become a strength.
We are a sacramental and liturgical church, and
worship is at the heart of everything we do. Regular worship services
are held on Sunday mornings, at 8:00 and 10:30, and Wednesday evenings at
5:30 each week. Christian Education (Sunday School) for children and adults
is held each Sunday morning from 9:15 to 10:00 a.m.
We hold the time honored Anglican practice of holding
Scripture, Tradition, and Reason as the cornerstones of our faith and life.
We practice a weekly Sunday celebration of the Holy Eucharist (the Lord's
Supper, Mass, Holy Communion). The Episcopal Church (and Saint Luke's
specifically) invites all Baptized Christians (of any age) to receive the
sacrament of Holy Eucharist, regardless of denominational background.
