Godly Play Comes to St. Luke!

Picture
​Godly Play, a program meant to encourage children's spiritual growth using stories told with beautiful wooden figures, is coming to St. Luke! We'll get a preview during Wednesday Church Night, September 7th, and the program will begin in earnest on September 18th! 

You can learn the story of how this wonderful program came to St. Luke here.

Sunday School

Growing and learning in faith is part of the call of all disciples of Jesus. Our Sunday School reflects that belief with meaningful (and fun!) intergenerational community gatherings, using the powerful Godly Play curriculum.

Ages: Pre-K through 5th Grade
​Time:  Sundays 10:30-11:30am
All children are welcome!

Children’s Church

A time during the 9:15 am Sunday service where children hear the Scripture reading in a kid-accessible manner: classic storytelling!

Children’s Music

Children share God's gift of music through choirs, instruments, leading worship, and special events. We have two choirs specifically for kids: the Hosanna Choir, now open to grades K-8, and the Timbrel Choir for grades 4-8.  ​

Middle School Ministries

Seeking to immerse Middle Schoolers in the Love of God

Confirmation is an important step on the journey of faith and an affirmation of baptism. Youth and parents share in a three year journey exploring faith, worship, and life together. We are lead by our pastors and a team of totally awesome mentors and teachers. Additionally regular fellowship experiences and service projects strengthen our connection with each other, the church and the world.

Ages: Grades 6-8
​Time: Sundays 10:30-11:30am, plus 2-3 retreats
