Theology Under The Trees, as scheduled
Thursday, August 6 | 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm – Seek No Further Cidery (126 Elm St, Granville)
See our calendar for scheduled dates.

Join St. Luke’s for a new community conversation series where faith meets real life. All are welcome. Bring your questions, perspectives, and curiosity. This is a space for reflection and faithful conversation - not political debate.

Together, we will take a current event and ask:

  • Where do you see God's heart being revealed in this story?

  • Who is most vulnerable or overlooked in this story?

  • What might faithfulness require of us this week?

No expertise required - just openness and curiosity.
