St. Luke's is a caring community with compassion for all of God's children — and we are all God's children. Our special focus is feeding the hungry.
Helping others
At St. Luke’s, Outreach means lending a helping hand to others in need. We believe we are the hands of Christ, bringing light and life into the world, especially by feeding the hungry.
A St. Luke’s hallmark is our commitment to service. Our external ministries team supports our members as we move out into the community, serving as Christ’s hands in the world. These teams help support the Market Street Pantry, which supplies food to the hungry; the Granville Turkey Trot, our annual Thanksgiving Fun Run that raises considerable funds for the Licking County Food Pantry; and we serve the homeless at the St. Vincent de Haven Shelter in Newark.
Additional Community Outreach Opportunities
Members of St. Luke’s are active volunteers and support many programs throughout our community, including:
Providing school supplies for the Ben Franklin Elementary School in Newark
Financial Support
St. Luke’s offers financial support for local, national, and international ministries. Ministries we have supported include:
Healing Art Missions
Healing Art Missions supports the people of Haiti. Our focus is to provide resources and funding to rural communities that lack access to basic resources, such as healthcare, education, employment, and clean drinking water.
