After marriage and three children, Maggie temporarily left her work, but when she saw the opportunity to join the Saint Luke’s team in 2017 as the Director of Stewardship and Communications, she felt a tug.

Message from the Rector

Dear Friends,

We all know that 2020 was not the easiest of years. Global pandemic, economic disruption, political uncertainty, and racial reckoning have all challenged our sense of stability. Sometimes it feels like the ground under our feet is sinking sand. But God’s love, and God’s call to share love, never changes. Let us draw refreshment and strength from the Living Water that God gives us in the Scriptures. And let us grow in our commitment to share Christ’s love with each other, our neighbors, and the world.

Faith grows here. Hope grows here. Love grows here. We grow here. I can’t wait for this year to unfold!

Yours in Christ,

Ryan+
