Campus Ministry
St. Luke church was actually founded as a campus ministry: "the Church at the University Gate." Students continue to be a vital part of the church community. Student-oriented activities include a Bible Study (7:30 pm Wednesdays) with Pastor Bair, Friday night movies and cookie-baking in the lounge, monthly dinners or lunches in Collegetown, and participation in nationally organized LSM and ecumenical retreats.
Students also host a "Welcome Back Lunch," an ice cream social, and a "Thank You Picnic" each year for the entire congregation. New and old students also have the opportunity to be "adopted" by long-term resident families. These relationships offer, for example, rides to church, home-cooked meals, a quiet place to study, or anything else that provides a sense of "home-away-from-home."
The campus ministry lounge (with adjacent kitchen) is always available as a place to study, meet up with friends, or prepare a meal. Free soda pop, tea, and hot chocolate is provided. (For after-hours access, ask about obtaining the code to the east door.) Join the Campus Ministry listserve by sending your email address to stluke-campusministry-subscribe@yahoogroups.com.
