Hot Breakfast
Breakfast this coming Sunday, February 10, will be provided by guest chef, Priscilla Bond.  
 
Please plan on joining everyone in Board Hall between 8:30am and 9:45 where you will not only enjoy great food but a time for fellowship.   
   
Shrove Tuesday Mardi Gras 
On Tuesday, March 5th, we will be holding our annual youth-sponsored Shrove Tuesday Mardi Gras event.   
 
Starting at 6pm in Board Hall, we'll honor the traditional eating of breakfast for dinner.  There'll be plenty of live music on the stage, and a King & Queen cake, complete with a hidden baby Jesus, so that we can crown our new Shrove Tuesday royalty.   
Contributions will be taken at the door, and all profits will be used for youth outreach efforts.  The youth of Anchorage Presbyterian will be working with ours for this event.  We know that will make it even more crowded than usual, but don't let that dampen your enthusiasm.   
 
Let's make a good showing to welcome our guests and support the youth of both congregations.
 
Ash Wednesday Services 
On Wednesday, March 6th, we will begin a holy observance of Lent with Ash Wednesday.  Imposition of Ashes and Holy Communion will be offered at 7am, 12noon, and 7pm.   
 
We encourage everyone to participate in this act of penitence and perspective-building, as we are all reminded that each of us "is dust, and to dust shall return."
 
2019 Contribution Envelopes
are available at both main entrances to the church.  
 
Please be sure to sign your name (legibly) AND the envelope box number on the sheets provided. If you don't, we have no way of identifying your cash donations.  
 
This is the last weekend the offering envelopes will be available at the church. As always, they are available at the church office.
 
St. Luke's Annual Silver Tea Event 
St. Luke's Annual Silver Tea will be Sunday, February 17, in Board Hall following the 10:00am service.   St. Luke's has hosted the Silver Tea for over 45 years. Donations support Home of the Innocents which provides shelter and care for children who are without support when their families are in trouble. A representative for the Home will speak at the Tea.
 
This year's Tea reception will feature tea, coffee, wine, etc. and finger foods. Anyone who can donate, please bring finger foods to Board Hall. If you need child care, please contact the church office in advance and we will gladly provide it. Come enjoy the fellowship and participate in outreach.
 
In 2011, St. Luke's received the Childfriend of the Year award from Home of the Innocents for all the support we have given them over these many years. Let's generously support the Home again this year!

St. Luke's Silver Tea Committee: Caroline Eddleman, Jamiee Goodman, Dot Hood, Ann Phillips, Calvin Riley Pinney, Nancy Rath and Brenda Stettenbenz
 
St. Luke's Book Club 
YOU ARE INVITED to St Luke's Book Club on February 19 at 6:00.  
 
Our book selection for February is The Story of Edgar Sawtelle written by David Wroblewski.
This book is, all at once, a mystery, a thriller, a ghost story, and a literary tour de force.  It is an authentic epic, long and lush, full of backstory and observed detail which mimics life.  Edgar was born mute, led an angelic life on a remote Wisconsin farm with some wonderful, unique Sawtelle dogs until his Father mysteriously died.  He and his mother attempted to continue the kennel operations and administration.  His Uncle started to help them and then...!   
 
MEETING INFO : Lyman House, February 19, THIRD (3rd) Tuesday monthly at 6:00 PM for 2+- hours of rousing conversations and introductions to books of almost every genre. At the end of each meeting, we discuss books for the next month's selection, so bring your suggestions with you. We invite you to join us!

March 2 & 3 / Guest Minister 
On the weekend of March 2 and 3, we will welcome the Reverend Holly Ostlund as our preacher at all 3 of our Eucharist.
