There are many needs in our community and in our body.
St. Luke's is a source of help and blessing to people facing difficult situations, meeting those needs and providing comfort and prayer to those affected.
Through the end of June this year, the benevolence needs for our parish and community have exceeded the amounts we spent in all of 2023.
We have blessed to be a blessing in our tithe, our time, and our talents. So, beginning this Sunday, July 7th, we will have a special offering the first week of each month. Any loose cash or change in the offering will be designated for Benevolence.
Checks with 'Benevolence' noted in the memo section will also be added to our Benevolence fund.
