St. Luke’s has launched the Re-membering Ministry to support members grieving the loss of a loved one. Trained volunteers—Re-membering Ministers—will offer compassionate presence through listening, visits, or conversation starting June 8th. This ministry helps individuals heal by sharing memories and rebuilding life after loss. If you have questions about this ministry, please reach out to Pastor Kyle Severson, John Schumacher, or Diane Barounis.
Spirit Matters now meets twice a month on the First and Third Wednesdays from 3:30 – 5 pm. June meetings will be: June 4 and 18.
Spirit Matters offers an opportunity to explore Lectio Divina, which is a personal way to encounter God through scripture, and Centering Prayer, in which we quiet our minds and open our hearts to God’s loving presence. Come join us for spiritual rest and refreshment. Your spirit matters! All are welcome. If you have any questions, contact Diane Barounis.
