I have always been part of a faith community. I often wonder how people who are not part of a faith community get through life. It's such a blessing and comfort to know that I have a faith community to support me and pray for me in good times and bad.
St. Luke's is the faith community I've been a part of for the majority of my life. Worshipping together is something that Mom and I are able to share most weeks. At St. Luke's we have many friends in common, some of whom have been members longer than we have.
St. Luke's has given me a variety of opportunities to share my gifts and blessings within the church community and with our neighbors, (e.g., Council, Foundation, Confirmation Mentor, God's Work-Our Hands, VEAP, Oasis). I am also grateful and blessed for the opportunities I have had over the years to share my musical gifts in worship.
St. Luke's has also given me opportunities to experience unique "micro" communities, such as a sailing trip with Pastor Rob, or the trip to Holden Village that Mom and I took several years ago with Pastor Karen.
My hope for future generations is that they can experience God's grace and unconditional love in a faith community such as St. Luke's. Each of us needs to discern our role in how to make this happen so St. Luke's can continue well into its future.
Blessings,
Trudy Dahl
