SERVICES

Worship is an encounter with the living God revealed in Jesus.

Our worship is a joyful journey into the Good News of Jesus Christ that engages our hearts and minds, nourishing us for the week ahead. We invite you to join us as we seek God and God's blessings for our lives.

St. Luke's has two services every Sunday.


8:00 am
Holy Eucharist Rite I

10:30 am
Holy Eucharist Rite II

Holy Eucharist Rite I

This is an hour-long, quiet, and meditative service of Holy Eucharist using Elizabethan English. We use Rite I from the 1979 Book of Common Prayer which includes three readings, a sermon, and Holy Communion (also sometimes referred to as The Lord's Supper, Eucharist, Mass). There is not normally music at this service. All Christians, regardless of denominational background, are invited to receive Holy Communion. Following the service, refreshments are served in the Narthex of the church, and a time of fellowship is observed.

​

Holy Eucharist Rite II

This service lasts slightly over an hour, and is a musical, festive, family friendly service of Holy Eucharist, which includes three readings, a sermon, and Holy Communion (Lord's Supper, Eucharist, etc.). Familiar, contemporary English is used from the Rite II form of the Eucharist in the 1979 Book of Common Prayer. All Christians, regardless of denominational background, are invited to receive Holy Communion.

Additional Services

Morning/Evening Prayer

Morning Prayer, sometimes called Matins, and Evening Prayer, the rough equivalent of Vespers (and also known as Evensong), are the two main Daily Offices in the churches of the Anglican Communion, prescribed in the various editions of the Book of Common Prayer and other Anglican liturgical texts. Both may be led by a layperson and are recited by many Anglicans including many members of The Episcopal Church.

​

Morning and Evening Prayer services are offered weekly at St. Luke's in the Prayer Chapel. Join us for Morning Prayer on Tuesdays at 8:30am or Evening Prayer on Wednesdays at 5:30pm.

Evensong

Evensong is a choir-led version of the Evening prayer office that we hold once a month. Sign up for our mailing list to stay up to date on when the next Evensong will be.

Formation

On Sundays at 9:00am (between the Rite I and Rite II services), Adult Forum meets in the library. Adult Forum can take the form of bible study, Episcopal 101, or classes studying our Book of Common Prayer and lectionary. â€‹

We welcome all who wish to deepen their faith and understanding.

Bible Study

Our Bible Study group is currently on the Book of Acts, and meets on Tuesdays at 10:00am.

Children's Sunday School

Children aged Kindergarten to 5th grade have to opportunity to attend Children's Church on Sundays at 10:30am. The children rejoin the congregation for communion. Children's Church meets in the narthex and are escorted upstairs, where kids will have activities and lessons drawing from the Lesson Plans that Work published by the Episcopal Church.

 

The nursery is available for children not yet ready for Children's Church.
