Welcome & Bienvenidos

We are looking forward to seeing you at St. Luke’s

As the Rector at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church, I feel at home because I am loved exactly for who I am. If you are looking for a community of faith where everyone is welcome, affirmed, and encouraged to participate in what we do, I invite you to visit us. Come and experience our worship services, our spiritual life, and our community. Come to share in the leadership of our ministries, serving others as Jesus expects us to do. Come and join us in welcoming every person, for them to feel that they are a perfect creation of God. Come if you know God deeply, or if you want to get to know God more deeply. Come and make of St. Luke’s your spiritual home.

Esperamos verte en San Lucas

Como el Rector en San Lucas yo me siento en casa porque aquí soy amado tal como soy. Si estás buscando una comunidad de fe en donde todas las personas sean bienvenidas, afirmadas, y puedan participar en todo lo que hacemos, te invito a visitarnos en San Lucas. Ven a vivir la experiencia de nuestras misas, nuestra vida espiritual, y nuestra comunidad. Ven a participar en el liderazgo y en nuestros ministerios, sirviendo como Jesús espera que lo hagamos. Ven y únete a nosotros a darle la bienvenida a cada persona, para que se sienta como creación perfecta de Dios. Ven si ya conoces a Dios profundamente, o quieres conocer más de Dios. Ven y haz de San Lucas tu hogar espiritual.

The Rev. Dr. / El Revdo. Dr. Antonio J. Gallardo, Rector

A heart filled with love has no room for hate.

St. Luke's is a Sanctuary parish and is a safe place for all.

We welcome the LGBTQIA+ community, our unhoused siblings, and anyone still exploring their relationship with God.

Our Values

1

Radical Inclusion

We believe that all human beings have a place in God’s eternal love, which leads us on a journey of inclusion made real by loving one another as God loves us. We seek a radical love that transforms our differences into the beautiful body of Christ. We intentionally invite all into a meaningful, deeper, and collaborative faith journey as part of the St. Luke's Community.

2

Joyful Faith and Spirituality

We believe that God loves diversity and commonality, joyful noise and silent peace. We continually strive to develop a personal understanding of God’s presence within and around us. Our faith is both a personal journey, and a fulfilling fellowship with those we know, those we may not see, and those who we find hard to love. Through God’s grace we discover ourselves and the exuberant joy of being.

3

Relentless Doing Good

We believe that we take out into the world both what we do, and what we receive in worship and community: the body and blood of Christ, forgiveness, awareness of God’s grace and mercy, and the joy of communion with God and one another. Thus, we are called to relentlessly actualize love, grace, mercy, and justice as we do good in our church, our neighborhood, and the world.

4

Authentic Discipleship

We believe that everyone at St. Luke’s brings unique and diverse gifts and talents that can be used to live into the reality of being God’s Beloved Community. By fostering an environment in which people claim their unique identity in Christ, their special gifts, and their personal calling, we strive to invite and equip disciples to humbly live into their life in Christ. We seek spiritual and social transformation as we offer ourselves as Christ's heart, hands, and feet in the world.

5

Divine Transformation

We believe that for us continue to grow into Beloved Community, we must be open to being transformed by Christ. We strive to live in a state of awareness, willingly acknowledging and embracing the discomfort that comes when our egos are challenged. We know that in the journey to becoming Beloved Community there will be changes and losses, and we accept them as part of the newness into which Christ invites us.
