August Community Corner: Family Promise
This month’s Community Corner donation drive is for Family Promise! Family Promise helps families experiencing homelessness with temporary housing and resources through a 90-day program that gets them back on their feet and into their own housing. As families that start out with nothing graduate from the program and take their personal supplies with them, Family Promise is always in need of the following items: new, reuseable water bottles for kids and adults, children’s pull-ups in all sizes, and new or very gently used bath, face, and hand towels. Please bring in donations of these items to the Community Cubbies throughout the month of August!

Hope in the Neighborhood
Construction continues along Stapley Drive with landscaping and detail work. We’re still on track for a finish date in August! A modernized, heat-resistant stucco called EIFS has been installed, and painting continues. A huge thank you to everyone who has pledged and donated towards this project! We can’t wait to finally reflect the vibrant community inside St. Luke’s walls to our neighbors!
 
Google Reviews for St. Luke

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.

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!

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. You can also check in on the app when you watch online services, no matter where you are! Contact the office (480-969-4414) if you need any help or have questions!

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.
