Pints & Parables

At our Pints gathering last week we shared laughs, swapped stories, and asked big questions. It wasn’t about having all the answers, it was about showing up, listening, and connecting. That’s what makes this community so special.

Missed this one? Don't worry, we saved you a seat for next time! Put March 12 on your calendar, bring a friend, and join the conversation.

As we prepare to celebrate Pastor Jenn’s incredible legacy at St. Luke’s, we’re inviting you to help us create a meaningful farewell gift for her. Jenn has helped write so many chapters of our story – now it’s our turn to write one for her.

We’re collecting notes, memories, and messages of gratitude from the congregation and will compile them into a bound book for Jenn to take with her on her new adventure to the conference.

You’re welcome to email your message to ThanksJenn@st.lukes.org or drop off/mail a handwritten note at the church office (Attn: Rachel Romoser).

Please send your message by March 8.
