Mariners' Sunday - March 4th at 10am

For twenty-six years, St. Luke has celebrated Mariners' Sunday, an ecumenical service dedicated to mariners.  Yachtsmen (and yachtswomen) from around the Bay Area join us for this unique service.  St. Francis Yacht Club's Sons of the Sea will be providing the music.  A brunch at Loch Lomond Yacht Club is scheduled for after the service and reservations may be made by calling Yvonne at (415) 927-0924 or via email at yhawkee@sbcglobal.net.

Volunteer Village Birmingham

St. Luke is once again partnering with First Presbyterian for a mission trip - March 25-31, 2012- this time to help the people of the Birmingham, Alabama metropolitan area whose towns were hit by destructive tornadoes in April of 2011.  Ralph Purdy from First Pres is coordinating volunteers from our two churches to go assist in clearing debris, working on building projects, helping various agencies with their projects, etc. 

Volunteers must pay the cost for attending; they will be housed for minimal cost at First United Presbyterian Church-Forestdale, and the deacons hope to raise funds to assist those from St. Luke who choose to represent us.

Act today to get your spot!  For more information contact the St. Luke office at 415-454-2705.

SSOSS - Second Sunday and Sometimes Saturdays

For youth and young adults!

February 11th (it’s a Saturday) We are having a helping day at the Fairfax Food Pantry. We give out food and smiles and get back so much more. Meet at St. Luke at 8:30 and we will be back about 11:30. Bring friends to this too, plan on hanging around for something to eat.

Any ideas for an event in March (maybe foosball?). Have other ideas? Let's talk.

April 14 or 15th. We're planning to head to Audubon Canyon Ranch and check out the herons and egrets. Want to see more? Here is a link: www.egret.org.

April 29th Crop Walk. Last year St. Luke took part in the Crop Walk ("Ending hunger one step at a time") and we had the largest of all the groups there. We want to do it again this year and we want you to be a part of it. Talk to friends and have them come join us. Here is the link if you want to learn more: www.cropwalk.org.

Cursillo - a Spanish word meaning "short course"

The Marin Cursillo group invites you to experience Cursillo, "A Short Course in Christian Living". Many St. Luke members are actively involved with the Marin Cursillo group or have attended a cursillo weekend.

Men's Cursillo week-end: March 1st - 4th
Women's Cursillo week-end: March 8th - 11th

Both teams are actively seeking people interested in experiencing this wonderful "retreat week-end" led by lay people and supported by all Christian religions here in the Bay Area.
