Dear St. Lukers,

Here we are, family! Already approaching the end of the third week of Advent. If things have been as busy for you as they have for everyone else around these parts, you may need a chance to slow down and process the many emotions that visit our hearts and minds this time of year. Many of these emotions and memories are tied to great joy we’ve experienced in years past. Others, however, are linked to more difficult times we are still healing from. This Sunday, we’ll have a chance to mourn as a community as we move toward hope together at our annual Blue Christmas service. We’ll sing, light candles, and pray, and you’ll be given something to hold on to as a reminder that you’re never alone...

Reminder: The church campus is closed from December 26 through January 2 in observance of Christmas and New Year's Day. We will re-open on Sunday, January 1 for one combined worship service in Founder's Hall at 10:00 a.m. (and live on Facebook), and the office will re-open on Tuesday, January 3 at 9:00 a.m.
