Parish NotesJune 17, 2012


What’s happening…




A Newcomers/Inquirer’s/Confirmation Class continues. This class will meet each Sunday in June in the Saint Luke’s Library at 9:15 a.m. In this course we’ll discuss the Sacraments and their meanings, church history, along with the origins of the Episcopal Church, the way that we approach this Christian faith of ours, and what difference it makes to you. Everyone is welcome, you don’t have to be new!

Pictorial Directory - The process of developing the 2012 Saint Luke’s Pictorial Directory is well underway. We will have a makeup photography day today between the services and immediately following the 10:30 a.m. service. We are very happy with the number of parishioners who took part – thanks to all who participated!  If for some reason you were unable to have your photo taken, there are other options, however, time is running out. You may email a recent photo to stlukes@estlukes.org, or send us one on a CD.  (If it is a professional photo, we need a release from your photographer to print it in the new directory.) We want everyone to be included in this directory!  Contact Lynn White (whites575@aeneas.net or 668-4120) if you need to make other arrangements.


Christian Education for Adults…

The Tuesday evening Bible study led by Gene Davenport meets each week at 7:00 p.m. We are now studying 1 Corinthians, Chapter 8 and all of you are invited. The class is in discussion formant and is not a lecture.

The Wednesday Morning Bible Study led by Dr. Brady Whitehead is on break for the summer. Classes will resume after Rally Day.

The Upper Room Class will go on summer hiatus after May 20. There will be no adult Sunday school starting the weekend of Memorial Day. We will resume on Rally Day in the fall, when we will begin a study of comparative religions. Our study will be centered on Huston Smith’s book, The Worlds Religions.
