St. Luke Lutheran ChurchEvangelical Lutheran Church in America • 109 Oak Avenue • Ithaca NY 
St. Luke is a vibrant community of teachers, learners, adults and children, sinners and saints and everyone who falls in between. We are a family in faith and our doors are open to all.
THOUGHT OF THE WEEK
This week’s lessons and the prayer of the day touched me as being very timely – and faithful – yet also very challenging.
Seminary Professor Walter Brueggemann has said: “The prophetic tasks of the church are to tell the truth in a society that lives in illusion, grieve in a society that practices denial, and express hope in a society that lives in despair”.
For the next year, we will be testing a new way of coordinating the faith and care. We are going to create a position of a monthly Shepherd.
