Join our Sunday Service as we celebrate our Patron Saint
St. Luke the Evangelist
We will enjoy a potluck and conduct the Vestry of the Whole meeting immediately following the service.
Luke 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 it’s sequel, the Acts of the Apostles. Luke wrote in Greek, so that Gentiles might learn about the Lord, whose life and deeds so impressed him. Only Luke provides the familiar stories of the annunciation to Mary, of her visit to Elizabeth, of the child in the manger, the angelic host appearing to the shepherd’s and the meeting with the aged Simeon.
