100 ACTS OF KINDNESS TREE

Thank you to all those who helped the tree bloom with over 100 Acts of Kindness.


“They will be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, to display his glory.” – Isaiah 61:3c


Community Life has been encouraging us to spread leaves of righteousness, 100 acts of kindness and service in honor of our 100th Anniversary. Again this is not a command, but an invitation. We are free to do or not do acts of kindness to glorify the Lord.
As the Prophet Isaiah declared to the people of his time – We are free to follow, keep the faith, be grateful, enjoy the comfort of the Lord and share it with others.
Look at how St. Luke’s Members lived out their freedom…
