July Community Corner #1: Hydration Stations
During the month of July, we have TWO Community Corners! The first is cases of bottled water for City of Mesa’s Hydration Stations. These stations are set up around the city during the hottest months to help provide relief to the vulnerable. You can bring in cases of water (carts are provided in the lobby) OR you can have the water purchased and sent to the hydration stations directly by visiting their website.

July Community Corner #2: Sleep in Heavenly Peace Bedding
Our second Community Corner this month is Sleep in Heavenly Peace! SHP is a national network of volunteers who build, deliver, and assemble beds to kids who need them – all for free. Their East Valley hub is right here at St. Luke. Help us restock their bedding supply with donations of NEW, TWIN sheet sets, beds-in-a-bag, comforters, and stuffies. We currently do not need pillows. Donations can be placed in the Community Cubbies in the lobby.

Welcome Cards
If you are new to St. Luke, you can fill out a green WELCOME card to let us know you’re here & ask us any questions! These cards are available in the pews, at the offering boxes, and in the lobby. They also have some general information about our church. Fill one out and drop it off in one of the wooden offering boxes located on the back wall behind the pews.

Offering Boxes at St. Luke
If you’ve been looking for the offering plate, don’t worry! You can still give on Sunday mornings by using the wooden boxes attached to the walls at the back of the sanctuary (behind the pews) next to each entry door. There are envelopes at each one, too. We also have online giving, which you can set up to give monthly, weekly, or yearly!

Do You Watch or Listen Online?
If you're traveling this summer or simply watching from home, did you know you can check into worship and watch online with the St. Luke Mesa app? Checking in requires a one-time account registration, after which, it's only a couple of clicks to check in. By checking in when you watch an online service, you help us get an accurate picture of how useful our online services & podcasts are! You can also use the app to request prayer, start a Bible reading plan, or set up recurring online giving!

St. Luke App
Did you know? St. Luke has an app! It’s a great way to find upcoming events, volunteer, send in a prayer request, and check into worship or a Bible study! Search “St. Luke Mesa” in your app store to download.

Don’t Forget to Check In!
Checking in on an iPad in the lobby or through the St. Luke’s app or website helps us in all kinds of ways! We use it to record attendance numbers, to keep you up to date with communications, and to know when you’ve been here and when you haven’t – just in case we don’t get to say hi in person one weekend. It’s also easy! The app requires a one-time registration, and the iPad just needs a phone number on file with the church office.

Google Reviews for St. Luke
St. Luke wants to help those seeking a church home, questioning their faith, or looking for a next spiritual step to find a place they can worship and belong. If you’ve enjoyed your time at St. Luke, please consider leaving a Google Review. These reviews help our church pop up on internet searches, and your story helps us tell His!

Weekly Prayers
Every Friday, the office sends out an email with all the prayer requests that have been submitted during the week. Reach out to the office to receive this email and help pray for St. Luke members in need!

Lost and Found
Have you misplaced something? Maybe it’s here with us! Call the office at 480-969-4414 or email us to let us know what you’re missing!

Hearing-Assistance System
We have a new hearing-assistance system that works with an app or a belt pack to aid people in hearing our services. Ask about it in the sound booth.
