Adults Ministries

Finding engaging community in every age and stage of adulthood

At St. Luke's you can find an authentic caring community of adults who desire to grow in their faith in Christ. 

We study the Bible to dig deeper and strive to learn everything we can about God's transforming love. We tell our stories to share with others how the Lord is still at work in the world and we make friends because our lives are changed when in community.

 

Join in community on Sunday mornings to study, serve and journey together!

In a Sunday morning class, you will find opportunities to enrich your Christian education through the study of Scripture and other topics. As you develop friendships, you will be challenged to grow in your faith and continue to evolve as a disciple of Christ.

Groups and studies are an important part of St. Luke's. 

We offer a variety of opportunities to encourage you to study the Bible, be active in prayer, share your story, grow in friendship, and give yourself away in generosity and service. We hope you find a place here to truly belong, celebrate the joys and weather the storms of life alongside others. Our desire is for you to become all God created you to be as you grow personally and spiritually through these offerings.

Group and class opportunities focus on a wide range of topics, including Bible study, book studies, theological studies, Christian living, and spiritual growth. These offerings range in size and meet weekly, monthly, and seasonally. We hope you'll find a group or class that is best for you as you continue to grow in your relationship with the Lord and others.

Our work matters to God and God matters to our work.

St. Luke’s Working Faith ministry encourages Christians to live authentically and purposefully as faithful people who are helping to build God’s kingdom. We help to remind one another that success in the workplace is not compromised by a commitment to living the Gospel. Rather, God blesses our work just as we bless others through our work. Our Working Faith ministry includes monthly breakfasts with local speakers, seasonal cohorts, and a mentor program. We hope you can join us for one or all of these opportunities. For more information, please contact Drew Scoggins.
