December Community Corner: Angel Tree
Help make some Christmas magic happen for CarePortal families, Prison Fellowship Ministry families, & Learning Foundation students! If you are able, please grab a tag off the tree and bring your gift, unwrapped and WITH TAG, by the date on the tag so that the organizations have time to distribute before Christmas. We suggest any gift cards and their tags be brought in with an envelope.

Night in Bethlehem Volunteer Sign-ups
Every year we love to welcome our community to a Christmas celebration of Jesus’ birth. We transform our campus into a re-creation of the first-century village of Bethlehem, complete with live animals, kids’ crafts, cookies, and a beautiful Songs & Stories presentation in our worship center – but it takes over 80 volunteers to make it happen! Please consider signing up in the courtyard after services, or on the app anytime! Dinner will be available before the event, and all volunteers will be able to watch the Songs & Stories performance!
Help Decorate the Altar!
Help us decorate the altar for our Christmas services! You can mark “flowers” on your donation of $10 and take them home a poinsettia after the holiday!
New Website is Here!
We’re excited to share a new look for the St. Luke website! Back in April, we hosted a town hall-style meeting to get feedback on what you’d like to see prioritized as St. Luke seeks to live out its mission in our community. One of these was a new website with modern SEO features to help people in the community find us. With this new website, we expect a lot more online traffic. We’re still working out some details, though, so thank you for your patience as we fine-tune the site!
Hope in the Neighborhood
The Stapley Drive revitalization project is almost done!! Drive down Stapley and check out the new landscaping, paint, signage, & artwork if you haven’t already. The long-awaited new AC unit for the Worship Center lobby has also been installed! A huge thank you to everyone who has pledged and donated towards this project!

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!
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.
