    ​When we were baptized and confirmed we promised to "work for justice and peace."
    St. Luke will again host a "Stand for Justice" gathering at noon on Saturday, June 20. Bring signs and join us along Germantown Parkway.
    ​
    ELCA's Anti-Racism Pledge is a great way to step forward with action. Please prayerfully consider signing.
      

    We Stand for Justice, We Stand for Peace

    Stand For Justice and Peace.....

    We will be holding another Justice and Peace gathering in front of St. Luke Church this Saturday, June 13th at noon.Pastor Cliff and Jennifer Wright will participate once again with members of our church, Epiphany Lutheran, Peace Lutheran, and Heart of God Outreach Ministries. We invite and encourage our youth to participate as well. Bring a sign showing your support for Peace, Justice, and Love. 

    We will gather along Germantown Parkway, with signs, standing six feet apart. This is not a protest, this is a call for support, to show we care, to demonstrate that we stand for Peace, Justice and the rights of all human beings. Join us if you wish or drop off a sign that can help the cause.

    We know this is not for everyone. We do ask that you remember our Lutheran heritage. Martin Luther was a protester. We are Protestants because our church protested abuses 500 years ago. The times have changed, but abuse still occurs, we are called as Christians to speak up for what is right.

    Picture
    ​Explore the simplicity of the Christian faith through the work of one of America's best known children's teachers – Mr. Rogers.
     

    Simple, patient, and calm.
    It's not just the recipe for a hit children's show, but for the spiritual life as well. These concepts are at the core of this course and unpacked by Westina Matthews in four video presentations entitled:
    ·       Remembering Mr. Rogers
    ·       Following the Teachings of Jesus
    ·       Simple and Deep
    ·       Making a Difference
    This course is ideal for those seeking to deepen their spirituality by exploring these foundational Christian concepts.
    Join us at St. Luke, each Wednesday:
    meal (5:00-5:45),
    study on Mr. Rogers (5:45-6:30)
    worship (6:30-6:50)

    Picture
    ​Vitalant is the Memphis region's only non-profit volunteer blood center, dedicated to meeting the needs of patients, healthcare facilities, medical professionals and the community at large. Every year Vitalant supplies more than 100,000 units of blood and blood products for local patient transfusion.
    The donation process only takes about 1 hour and takes place entirely at St. Luke. Each donation of whole blood can help as many as 3 recipients - all of them our neighbors.
    A sign-up sheet will be located on the bulletin board outside the office starting February 9th. However, I strongly recommend you sign up at clublifeblood.us. You can also complete your health questionnaire in advance the day of the drive at this website.
     
    Don't forget you earn points with every donation that can be redeemed at clublifeblood.us; rewards include t-shirts, movie passes, and gift cards.

    Here at St Luke ...

    We seek God. We are a church that seeks to express our love for God in all that we do - with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength (Mark 12:30).
    We serve others. The St. Luke church family has a heart to serve the community, loving each other just as God has loved us (John 13:35). 
    We share our lives together. No one here is perfect - we are all ordinary people who gather together to worship God, grow spiritually, and put our faith into action (James 2:15).
