Ephesians 5:1-3, 20 Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved Children, and live in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God and giving thanks to God the Father at all times and for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
For forty years I have been a part of St. Luke's Community of Faith It has been a highlight of my faith journey and I thank God every day for St. Luke's and all who have been a part of my life story & spiritual growth. Prior to joining I already had good friends here and I immediately became involved in its ministry all of which contributed to my spiritual growth. In the last twenty years, however, the focus has been on Card Ministry and Care Team which has been a special blessing and very rewarding.
In its 97 years St Luke's has been faithful in making Christ known, touched thousands of lives and assisted many believers in their faith journey. Now we must plan for another 100 years of ministry--desperately needed in today's world. As a tither I have been richly blessed for making that decision (with my husband) 65 years ago. Stewardship sermons are preached every year and we need to hear them and continue to be be reminded of how generous our God is. I like a favorite pastor's slogan, "Give until it feels good". It is always a privilege to thank God with giving and praying is always helpful and also a privilege.
Enjoy each day, it is a special gift from God.
