COVID-19 Update

On May 19,  St. Luke’s Church Council approved the document above Moving Forward In Faith: A Guide to Gathering Together Again. We are taking a cautious approach, moving forward slowly based on the data from the Texas Medical Center and public health officials. (You can see the data yourself here.) We will start with small groups and move forward in stages as we see the virus under control. Sometimes, we may move backwards to a previous stage as we see the data. It also may be that some ministries may be able to move forward faster than others. It is currently our hope to move to small groups in June. Note that it will be a while before we gather for worship again, even with a plan for “distance loving,” our moniker for social distancing.

St. Luke’s church is not closed. The building has been closed of course, but church is open and working and serving and teaching and forming community. Virtual worship is going well, reaching more people than our worship has ever before. We are having great attendance in the classes and groups online and are investing our energy in creating better and better experiences in the days ahead. The people of St. Luke’s have been incredibly generous, so while we are working to tighten our belts and manage our expenses, our financial picture remains stable and strong.

We covet your prayers for St. Luke’s as we move forward in faith together, pursuing our vision of a city transformed by the love of Jesus.  “…Let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of our faith…”  (Hebrews 12, 1-2).

Ways to Help

Although we are not gathering to worship in our building, St. Luke’s is busier than ever. We are feeding hungry youth, holding weekly food drives, reaching out to homebound members and more. At St. Luke’s we may be social distancing, but we are also “Distance Loving.” Click the button below to see how you can help.
