ABOUT US …
Who We Are
St. Luke’s Atascadero is a community where love is expressed and experienced through generous hospitality, joyful and musical worship, service and mission, generous stewardship, and spiritual growth for members of all ages.
Parish Life and Pastoral Care
In the interval between permanent rectors, the congregation of St. Luke’s grew into a strong and active body of leaders. We found many alternative ways to care and support the members of the congregation.
At St. Luke’s, prayer is very important. Members of Daughters of the King lead the Tuesday and Thursday Evening Prayer services. They also collect and disseminate prayer requests to the membership. The Caring Parish Ministry group is charged with making monthly check-in phone calls to each member. Rev. Linzi provides pastoral support when needed and we enjoy monthly visits with two supply priests, Rev. Karen Siegfriedt and Rev. Richard Rollefson.
Our History
In 1950 a small group of women from Atascadero decided they would like to begin their own mission. The mission of St. Luke the Evangelist was founded April 1, 1951. The women decided on the name because Luke was a physician and they wanted the church to be based on the principles of healing and evangelism. More:
Our Patron Saint
St. Luke the Evangelist
Luke the Evangelist was a Gentile, a physician, and one of Paul’s fellow missionaries in the early spread of Christianity through the Roman world. He has been identified as the writer of both the Gospel which bears his name, and its sequel, the Acts of the Apostles. More:
Outreach
Service is a natural result of spiritual grounding and growth. St. Luke’s has a strong commitment to outreach and supports the greater community by cooking for the homeless shelter, provisioning apartments for medically fragile people, making quilts to be sent to disaster areas world-wide, and ringing bells for the Salvation Army. We also host several fundraisers throughout the year, with the proceeds designated to a selected charitable organization.
