Welcome to This Week at St. Luke’s for the week of the Sixth Sunday of Easter, May 31, 2025 to June 7, 2025.

We wish to thank everyone who attended and participated in our beautiful Memorial Day and Ascension Day services last week. Now as we enter the last week of Eastertide, we look forward to the celebration of Pentecost! This Saturday evening we will have a Said Holy Eucharist for the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, followed by Sung Holy Eucharist for the Seventh Sunday of Easter on Sunday morning. We will have our Healing Eucharist Wednesday at 12:10pm before heading into next weekend to celebrate the coming of the Holy Spirit.

Please see below for our weekly schedule, important announcements and upcoming events, livestream links, and our parish prayer list.
