Chicagoland is exploring God in 2019. Explore God discussion groups are designed to create a safe environment where group members can seek credible answers to challenging spiritual questions. These groups discuss some of the most popular questions people have about God, faith, religion and the Bible. Some of the questions that we explore include questions like, does life have a purpose, is there a God, and why does God allow pain and suffering? Explore God is designed to be a resource for everyone. None of us have it all figured out and these questions around God are arguably some of the most important questions we should all explore. Everyone is invited and there is no cost to attend, so join us as we explore God together! Explore God is a seven week course. St. Luke will look at Question 1: Does Life Have a Purpose on Sunday, January 13 following worship and conclude with Question 7: Can I Know God Personally on February 24.

Your Help is Needed!
The holidays are over and 2019 has officially arrived! Yet many of our neighbors continue to experience food insecurities during these cold winter months and throughout the year. The entire month of January is St. Luke’s assigned month to collect food donations for the GLEN ELLYN FOOD PANTRY. (St. Luke is one of the original six churches that has supported the Pantry since its inception in 1979). Please help the Pantry keep its shelves full this January with food (or cash) donations. While any donations are welcomed, especially needed this January are peanut butter, jelly, rice, pasta, canned tuna, and toilet paper. Paper bags with attached shopping lists are available in the narthex. If you have any questions please talk to Rosemary Hahn. |

Annual Cookie Walk December 16th Many cookies were baked with little concern about calories. However; there were many smiles and satisfied taste buds and generous donations to the Congregational Action Teams budget. Those funds will be used to achieve our mission priorities as shown on the Mission webpage. Thanks to all who baked and all who ate. |

Humanitarian Service Project Good Work: All 25 Children and Seniors were sponsored and all gifts were wrapped and delivered on time. This is our second year supporting the Giving Tree Program at the Humanitarian Service Project (HSP) in Carol Stream. 2018 was a great success. This organization helps impoverished families living in DuPage County. We took the opportunity to brighten Christmas for 15 children and 10 senior citizens by purchasing gifts and books for children and needed items for seniors. Thank you all for your generosity and support of this program. More about the Humanitarian Service Project |
