Acolytes

The St. Luke Acolyte Ministry recruits and organizes the boys of St. Luke to be available to assist Father during the celebration of The Divine Liturgy and other services, rituals and traditions of the Orthodox Church.

 

Choir

The St. Luke Choir Ministry has the wonderful opportunity to lead our parish family in worship. We come together to pray and lift our voices to the Lord in thanksgiving for all he has done for us. The word 'liturgy' is literally defined as,  the work of the people. We would love to have the entire congregation join us in our responses.
