St. Luke’s invites you and your family members to Homecoming. Homecoming is a time to reconnect with one another as we join in worship, fellowship and good food.
We will begin the day by gathering in the Parish Hall at 10AM where members, family and friends will be welcomed and then listen to one of our long-time members and guest speaker tell her story and experiences growing up at St. Luke’s.
At 10:30AM we will move to the Church for a special service including worship, song, prayer and Holy Eucharist. Following the service, St. Luke’s Historical Society will host lunch which will be served outside (weather permitting).
We hope you can join us for worship, fellowship, good food and reconnecting with one another. If you plan to dine with us, please RSVP by Tuesday, May 14th by contacting the Church office at 804-794-6953 or click the button below.

A FIELD TRIP TO CHRIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH
St. Luke’s Historical Society attended a field trip to Christ Episcopal Church in Charlottesville, VA on April 11th. Christ Church was founded in 1820 by a congregation led by its first Rector, Frederick Hatch. The first organized congregational worship occurred on November 27th, 1825, the first Sunday of Advent. In 1826 and after a $200 donation from Thomas Jefferson, construction of the original church building was completed. The current building dates to 1898 with the installation of the Tiffany-stained glass windows soon following.
To get the most out of the visit, our tour guide provided very interesting insight. The field trip was well attended. We completed our visit with a delicious lunch at Three Notch Brewery also located in Charlottesville. It was a most enjoyable day.
Stay tuned for our next field trip.
