Our Book Study Series for 2023-2024 focuses on two texts focusing on the practice of prayer.
Abba by Evelyn Underhill is a collection of meditations on the Lord's Prayer.
The Practice of the Presence of God by Brother Lawrence is a collection of personal conversations and letters focused on experiencing God in daily life.

The Formation Program at St. Luke’s is designed to prepare adult parishioners for Baptism, Confirmation, Reception, or the Reaffirmation of Baptismal Vows at the Easter Vigil. It is a way for people to find their way “home” to St. Luke’s, whether from another tradition, no tradition, or a life-time with the Episcopal Church. The program consists of three parts. The Discovery Series is open to anyone interested in the subject matter, and the latter two parts are for those who have completed the Discovery Series and wish to proceed as candidates to be presented to the Bishop at the Easter Vigil on March 31, 2024. All candidates are paired with a sponsor who will introduce them more deeply to the life and ministries of St. Luke’s Church. Candidates are expected to attend all four sessions of the Discovery Series and to participate in all subsequent meetings of the program. Full participation in the liturgies of Holy Week is strongly encouraged.

Join us on Sundays after the 10:30 mass in the School Dining Room

Have you ever wanted to ask a question about that one random verse in the epistle, or the history of an event covered in the Gospel? Sermons can only address so much on a Sunday morning, so consider joining us during coffee hour at 10:15am to talk about the lessons, ask questions, and study the Bible with fellow parishioners.
