Our Ministries
Ministry at Saint Luke’s takes many forms. There is the ministry of prayer, feeding the hungry, offering fellowship, serving at the altar and much more. As we seek to serve Christ in all persons, loving our neighbors as ourselves, we offer our time and talents in several ways, and we are always looking for opportunities to reach out.
We also know how important it is to build community within the parish, to nourish us for the work of Christ. Ministry inside the church is both beneficial to the Body of Christ and FUN!
Here are the a few of the many varied opportunities to get involved at Saint Luke’s. We hope you will join us!
