Children are important to the community of faith at St. Luke’s. We take seriously the Sacrament of Baptism and pledge to nurture our children in the Christian faith toward a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. The Children’s Ministries are designed to help children know that they are loved by God and belong to a parish family that loves and supports them.
