Ongoing Classes and Groups
Young(ish) Adults Group
Young(ish) Adults is a community of young professionals, couples, and families who gather regularly for connection, fellowship, and spiritual growth. Rather than a single-format program, this group offers a variety of opportunities throughout the year—each incorporating elements of faith formation in ways that feel natural and engaging, whether through shared meals, prayer practices like Compline, service, or simply time spent in meaningful conversation.
We typically gather on the first Wednesday of each month in the Parish Hall for dinner, conversation and compline (kids are always welcome!), along with additional events and activities that change with the season. Details are shared in the Sunday bulletins, and you’re always welcome to reach out to learn more.
Regular Programs & Opportunities:
- First Wednesday Dinners
- Outreach & Service Projects
- Seasonal Events (like a spring baseball game or summer family camp)
- Participation across church ministries
- Personal and Family Spiritual Development
- One-on-One Spiritual Direction

Jesus is our role model for living and showing us who God is and wants us to be. This class is open to men and women and meets on Zoom Wednesdays from 11:00 am to 12:30 pm. It is a welcoming, open, and safe environment.

Thursday Meditation Group
Purpose: To learn about, explore and encourage the spiritual practice of meditation and through it to experience the contemplative dimension of Christianity. We believe that our contemplative presence at St. Luke’s serves an important spiritual purpose for the individuals involved and for the church as a whole.
Requirements to get involved: Anyone can meditate; it’s simple, but not easy. We share readings, reflections, poetry, or scripture for 30 minutes and meditate in silence for 30 minutes. The group affords a significant opportunity for spiritual growth. In addition, there is a sense of community and fellowship.
When you meet: The meditation group meets online via Zoom at 9:00 am on Thursdays. They meet in person irregularly at 10:00 am on the 2nd Thursday either at the Church or the Bishop Jones Center; details can be found on the church calendar.

Each spring, the Women’s Book Study gathers for a season of reading, reflection, and conversation. Meeting on alternating Tuesdays at 6:00 pm, this group offers a welcoming space to grow in faith and connect with one another.
Each season features a selected book to guide discussion—recent studies have included How We Learn to Be Brave by Bishop Budde. Meetings are held at Nowhere Bookstore from 6:00–7:45 pm.
