Whether you’ve only started attending recently or have been coming for years, we welcome you to make St. Luke’s your “official” church home.

Understand the work of the church and the importance of your role within it. Discover your God-given gifts and connect those gifts with your passion. Learn ministry opportunities and discern where you can make a difference through your service. Wednesdays, May 8 & 15, 7-8:30PM in E212. Led by Terri Coe, Director of Adult Ministries.

Graduation Recognition/Scholarship Awards

Disciple Bible Study/Adult Ed Classes

Today we celebrate the achievement of graduating from high school and college! On today’s insert you will find the names and graduation details of those students who provided that to the church. In addition, we will announce the names of the St. Luke’s Christian Life Scholarship. The scholarship fund was established in 2006 through the St. Luke’s Endowment. Each year, the income from this fund provides scholarship support to two or three youth who have demonstrated a passion for their faith and their willingness to help make a difference in the lives of others. The fund exists in perpetuity, enabling the designation of scholarship support for years to come. If you are interested in leaving your faith legacy for others through a bequest to the Endowment, contact the church office.

Disciple Bible Study information available in the West Passage at the Adult Ministries table, along with info on other classes. Registration for Disciple classes begins June 1.

NEWS YOU CAN USE Follow the Choir in Italy Over 80 members of the Chancel Choir and 40 non-singers, including Rob and Susan Fuquay and under the leadership of Music Director Mark Squire, departed on a ten-day tour of Italy last Saturday.

May Communion Monthly They’re here! Pick up a copy of the May Communion Monthly from the stands by major exits, at the Welcome Center and main office, and always 24/7 at www.stlukesumc.com/news/publications. We encourage sharing, so pick up an extra copy to give to family, friends, neighbors or colleagues and invite them to join you at St. Luke’s.

Summer Volunteers Needed The Track is looking for enthusiastic, energetic adults or older youth to give our school-year volunteers some time off, and to help the summer run smoothly for our preschool and elementary children. Consider a short-term commitment that could be tailored to your availability. To learn more, contact thetrack@stlukesumc.com.

UMW Sewing Day All sewers – experienced and novice – are welcome to join members of United Methodist Women on Thursday, May 9 from 9AM-Noon in N101/102 to make pillowcase dresses to send to girls in Haiti. Bring your cutting shears, sewing machine and a finger food to share. All other supplies will be provided. Questions? Contact Regan at regansummers@hotmail.com.

Mother’s Day Gift? On Sunday morning, May 12, the Sowers will be having their annual plant sale in the West Passage between services. Come check out some great plants harvested from many of our personal gardens. The plants are mostly perennials, and proceeds help us to maintain the Sowers garden, Entrance 16 and the urns at the main entrance to St. Luke’s. The Sowers volunteer their time and talent to tend these areas, and both novice and experienced gardeners are welcome to join up. For more info, contact Gail Corn at 843-1244.
