A warm welcome to all!
We want you to know about Saint Luke's Episcopal
Church – a welcoming and friendly community of Christians in Jackson,
Tennessee who would like
you to join us.
We hope that you are encouraged by what you see on
our website and will plan on joining us for Sunday worship. We are sure to
be enriched by your presence. Saint Luke's is a historic parish and while we
are proud of our roots and heritage we are also excited about the community
we are now and the one we are becoming.
The
Book of Common Prayer describes the mission of the Church in this way: "The
mission of the Church is to restore all people to unity with God and each
other in Christ... The Church pursues its mission as it prays and worships,
proclaims the Gospel, and promotes justice, peace, and love... The Church
carries out its mission through the ministry of all its members." BCP 1979
p. 855
Our worship, our Christian education program, our
Outreach projects and our many fellowship events help equip us for our
mission and from that place of strength and encouragement we move to care
for others outside our doors. Inviting new people into our parish family to
share our hopes and their dreams is a pleasure and a delight.
You honored us with your visit to this site. Please know you are always welcome
at Saint Luke's and if you are looking for a church home
we would very much like you to consider us. You are more than
welcome to call on me as you need.
God's peace be with you,
The Reverend Sean Ferrell,
Rector
