Gospel Reflection
In this week's Gospel, Jesus tells some inquiring disciples, "Come and see!" This is a phrase St. Luke's like to use as well. What was Jesus' invitation to these potential disciples, and what is our invitation?
Come to St. Luke's this weekend and let's talk about it.
Monday January 19, the office will be closed in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day

This weekend the nation commemorates the life of Dr. Martin Luther King. Our adult forum will view the award-winning film SELMA, which tells the story of the difficult (and sometimes bloody) process by which Voting Rights Act of 1965 became law. Note that this is a feature-length film, so our forum will extend beyond its usual 12.15 ending time.
