Our parish is deeply rooted in the fabric of Greenwich Village. Various neighborhood organizations meet in our buildings, and our garden offers rest and relaxation to passers-by. Our annual Christmas pageant and Easter egg hunt draw children from all over the neighborhood.
At the same time, our reach extends far beyond the Village. Our Anglo-Catholic liturgy, our music program, and the energy of our congregational singing draw visitors from around the country and the world. Every year our annual Gay Pride Evensong packs the church with visitors.
In the 19th century, St. Luke's was a center of the Catholic renewal and the Oxford Movement. The parish became the first in the city to offer daily services of the Divine Office and a weekly Sunday Eucharist. The Eucharist remains at the heart of our life at St. Luke's.
We believe that as members of the Body of Christ, we have been called to ministries of worship, education, hospitality and witness. We strive to welcome all who come through our doors. We hope you will join us in worship, ministry and hospitality, as we seek to participate fully in the life of our city and of the larger church.
