Locally Grown Pitch-In Dinner Indianapolis is a wonderful place to live in the summer because of the availability of locally grown fresh fruit and vegetables. Pick something from your own garden, or go to a Farmers’ Market near you, pull out your recipes and make a dish with at least one locally grown ingredient. Bring your contribution to our pitch-in dinner on Saturday, July 28, 6-8PM in the Great Hall. Reservations suggested; register at www.stlukesumc. com (search “locally grown”). The Green Ministry promises an evening of interesting taste treats. No fee; donations appreciated. Everyone is welcome!

COMMUNION Servant Day 2012 Plan to join over 350 members of your St. Luke’s family by participating in the 4th Annual Servant Day on Saturday, August 4. There is something for everyone—young and seasoned, families and singles, high and low energy levels, indoor and outdoor preferences. There are 8,760 hours in a year. This is an opportunity to spend just four of those hours in service to others, sharing God’s love while making new friends. The day will begin with breakfast in the Great Hall, followed by prayer and a rousing send-off, after which teams will be dispersed throughout Pike and Washington Townships. There will be service projects in and around St. Luke’s, at schools and daycare centers, and other community agencies. Signup tables will be in the Narthex on Sunday, July 15, and in both the East and West Passages on the following two Sundays, July 22 and 29. Can’t wait until then? Sign up online now at www.stlukesumc.com (search “servant day”). Let’s make this the biggest, most successful Servant Day yet!

Casual Sundays in July & August This summer, the Chancel Choir takes a well-deserved break and our fantastic Summer Choir takes over. The Summer Choir doesn't wear robes (don't worry, they wear something else!), and so our clergy decided they'd take a robe break too... so we decided, why not just make it Casual Sundays for everyone! So if you'd like to ditch the coat and tie, trade the high heels in for comfy sandals, we encourage you to do so. Just remember: no shoes, no shirt, no... well, we'll still have the service, but you get the idea!
