Communications

Bulletin

The parish bulletin is published weekly to inform our faith community about and current activities. While capturing the spirit of parish life, it also seeks to educate, inspire and encourage holiness and Christian service.

The bulletin is mailed once a month (1st complete week of each month) to all registered parishioners. Other weekly bulletins are handed out by Ushers at weekend Masses. 

Many hours go into the planning and writing of the bulletin. If you would like to contribute information, please phone the editor at the church office at least two weeks prior to the printing date.

Bulletin Mail-Preparation Group

Every Tuesday morning, a team of ladies and gentlemen volunteers assemble the pages of the parish bulletin. Once a month (the first full week) the bulletin is mailed to all registered members. For that bulletin, this group also prepares them for bulk mailing by labeling, sorting and banding them together. These volunteers usually begin the day by celebrating Mass together at 8:45 a.m. and then start the bulletin work in classroom No.1. 
In addition to the bulletin, this group also handles all bulk mailings, as well as all programs and booklets for special events. Not only does this group (mostly ladies) share their time, but also their latest recipes and batches of homemade goodies.

Faithfully In Touch

Faithfully In Touch is a ministry that was formed to stimulate two-way communication between St. Luke and our parishioners. The ministry utilizes a network of volunteers, called "Voices of St. Luke", who will make telephone calls to each family in the parish at least three times a year.

But Faithfully In Touch is not just about communication, it is also about caring, compassion, and helpfulness. So it is in this spirit that each time a call is made, the primary objective is to check on the welfare of that family and, if a need exists, offer the help of St. Luke's numerous ministries. While in touch, the Voices of St. Luke will: remind each family of the significant upcoming events, solicit feedback on how St. Luke is doing, and , when needed, obtain vital census and stewardship pledge information for administrative purposes.

This ministry will also be used to welcome new parishioners to the parish. A special call will be made to welcome each parishioner and familiarize them with St. Luke. 

St. Luke Connection

As part of our response to Our Lord's command to "spread the Good News," St. Luke publishes a bi-annual evangelization publication called "St. Luke Connection."  The publication is mailed 2-3 times a year, to all residents within our parish boundary. It is primarily an outreach to inactive Catholics with an invitation to become active again, as well as an invitation to unchurched persons to investigate our Catholic Faith and decide whether it may be spiritually enriching for them. And finally, it is a way to share our Catholic beliefs and traditions with our non-Catholic neighbors.

St. Luke Connection is mailed to our residents within our geographic parish boundary. Many volunteers are needed to prepare this publication for mailing in accordance with postal regulations. If you would like to help with this effort, please contact the parish editor.
