Opportunities Coming For Everyone

 

December 3: ADVENT is the start of the Church Calendar Year for most churches. It always begins on the fourth Sunday before Christmas Day and ends on Christmas Eve. The focus of the entire season is preparation to celebrate the birth of Jesus, (His First Advent) and the anticipation of His return (His Second Advent) at the Parousia, i.e. the end of all things. We also keep in mind that Christ comes to us even now in our prayers, worship, sacraments and outreach. “O COME, O COME EMMANUEL”

February 15: Gathering,  Speaker, Kelly Flanagan.  During our February gathering, author, speaker, and clinical psychologist Kelly Flanagan will draw our attention to what he calls the most important moment in our spiritual life.  It's a moment that repeats itself daily, sometimes hourly, though we are often totally unaware of it.  You'll walk away from the evening able to identify the moment, understand what is happening within it, and equipped to engage it, so you can increasingly live in your spacious Soul rather than your smaller self.

St. Luke’s is a faith community which maintains a fairly high church liturgical tradition and embraces the theological progressive views of the Episcopal Church.  Music is an integral part of our worship experience as most services include sung masses, hymns, and choral anthems.

MUSIC DURING HOLY COMMUNION

We continue with superb organ literature as preludes, postludes and meditations throughout the Eucharist. The Organ has recently been tuned and further upgraded in the last few weeks. The brilliant Festival Trumpette en chamade over the Nave doorway has added thrilling sounds in particular at pivotal moments during our worship. We are blessed to have such a versatile instrument.
