Gifts for Refugee Children
Last year, your generosity helped give over 200 kids at RefugeeOne a wonderful Christmas! St. Luke’s is partnering with RefugeeOne again this year. Last year was so successful, that we will be repeating what we did by providing monetary donations to give each child a gift. Our goal is to raise $25 per child; with that level of support, each child will receive a bag full of candy, one small item and a gift card.
Thanksgiving Worship
Each of us has much to be thankful for this year. Please join the community in giving thanks in person or online.

Please take a moment to make a donation to ELCA World Hunger to make this Thanksgiving memorable for those less fortunate.
