Love Our City Sign-ups
This weekend is the last weekend to sign up for Love Our City projects happening Saturday, Jan. 31st! Each year, St. Luke sets aside a weekend to bring the hope and healing of Jesus to our neighbors through impactful, hands-on service projects. There is still lots of room at the Sleep in Heavenly Peace bunk bed build, and no experience, equipment, or “handiness” required! For details, you can sign up here or at the info counter.

Thank you, Melissa!
As you may have heard last weekend during announcements, our 10:30 worship director, Melissa Little, is stepping down. It’s not goodbye forever, though! Melissa, Matt, and their two wonderful boys will still call St. Luke home. This will be Melissa’s last weekend leading worship, after which they’ll take some time away to visit family. We have been so blessed to have Melissa lead us in worship this year. If you’d like to leave Melissa (and Matt) a note, you’ll find blank cards & a card box in the lobby this weekend.

Ash Wednesday Services & Dinner
Ash Wednesday is February 18th. Join us for worship at 10AM or 6:30PM. The youth will be serving Ash Wednesday dinner in the Commons at 5:30 and the nursery will be available at 6:30.

2026 Leadership Team
This weekend, we’ll take a moment to recognize our newest members to St. Luke leadership, including Tim Creaser, Renee Lindberg, and Don Smith to the Council, Dan Stirnaman to the Elders, and Alycia Arnold to the Endowment Team!

February Community Corner: Diapers & Wipes
February’s donation drive request is for all sizes of diapers and baby wipes which will be donated to Helen’s Hope Chest (serving the foster care community), Choices Pregnancy Center (assisting moms with unplanned pregnancy support) and CarePortal (connects churches to struggling families in temporary crisis). Larger sizes are always in high demand! Donated items can be placed in the cubbies in the worship center lobby.

Canaan in the Desert Hosted by the Women’s Ministry
Save the Date! As the Lenten season begins, ladies AND gentlemen are invited to join us at Canaan in the Desert for a reflective walk through their prayer garden, featuring beautiful carvings depicting the Stations of the Cross. A chapel service will begin at 10AM. Those looking to carpool can meet at church at 9:15am.

Breakfast With Pastor Luke
Want to learn more about St. Luke’s? Starting next Sunday at 9:30am in the Commons, we’ll be serving breakfast for three consecutive Sundays. Each week, we’ll talk about a different aspect of St. Luke’s. They’re a great way to get to know Pastor Luke and ask any questions you may have. Our nursery and Sunday School classes are available for children. Please RSVP or sign up at the info counter.

ALPHA Group at St. Luke’s
Alpha is a national group that believes in asking questions. Their network helps churches offer spaces to unpack the basics of the Christian faith in an open, friendly environment. No pressure. No judgement. It’s for anyone who’s curious, no matter their  beliefs or background. St. Luke is hosting an Alpha group, led by Vicar Ethan, on Wednesdays at 6:30pm. Visit Alpha’s website or sign up at the info counter for more info.

GriefShare
GriefShare is a nationally recognized network of support groups for those dealing with grief. Grief can feel all-consuming, so please don't bear it alone! St. Luke's GriefShare groups meet on Tuesdays at 12:30pm in the Fellowship Room, beginning Jan. 13th. All are welcome. For further information contact Paul Hoffmann. Register online.

Welcome Cards
If you are new to St. Luke, 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.

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 as long as we have a phone number on file for you, you can check in on any iPad at church.

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!

2026 Giving Envelopes
Boxes of 2026 giving envelopes are now available at the information counter in the worship center. Boxes contain an envelope for every Sunday plus special services. You can also set up automated giving online through our website.

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.

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.
