St. Luke's North Park February 7th Report
These past weeks
we've been reflecting on the calling of Jesus' disciples -- and admiring the
speed with which they cast down their nets, dropped their tools, and followed
him. Those calls were clear and powerful! Today, God's voice can so
easily be drowned out among the hiss of agendas, intrigue, and bedazzlement of
21st century American life. Where might we find the space to breathe and
listen once again for our particular call to follow the One who loves each of
us dearly?
Join our
Following Jesus class in February and March. Starting this Sunday, Feb 11 at 12:30 pm, we'll spend 90 minutes each week together
re-grounding ourselves in the story of God's people. Whether you've known yourself to be part of this
story since birth, or whether it's a story you've just come across or are only
now coming back to, we hope you'll take this journey with us! Let's
discover what the next step in our adventure of faith is and find the courage
to take it.
St. Luke's own
walk in faith over the past year has included fundraising for a commercial
kitchen upgrade in order to make possible a refugee women's culinary arts job
training program run by the International Rescue Committee. We
found out last week that we received a $25K matching grant from the Parker
Foundation, so we invite you to help us raise a matching amount by giving what
you can here: https:// stlukesnorthpark. nationbuilder.com/kitchen
May our God of
peace and power soon transfigure this hurting world so that all God's people
may know the joy and abundance that God dreams for each of us!
Peace, Laurel and
Colin
