SUMMER OF GENEROSITY: Leading Generously. God promised a redeemer, a reconciler, who would inaugurate a new covenant. “Whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life” (John 3:16) is one of the most resounding promises in all of Scripture. “For those who love God, all things work together for good, for those who are called according to His purpose” (Romans 8:28), and now nothing “will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 8:39).

THANK YOU MEGAN!  Ephesians 4 “And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds, and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ…”  We thank and praise the Lord for the work of DCE Megan Skelton.  Megan came to St. Luke’s as an intern in July of 2012.  St. Luke’s called her to full time ministry in 2013 as Director of Christian Education. 

Megan was instrumental in growing our ministry to children as she worked with children from birth through sixth grade.  Over the years, Megan was the face to greet and teach our Preschool chapels, run our VBS programs, as well as working with our school and our 5th and 6th grade youth program.  She took on the new challenge of our Generations worship in 2018 to awaken the hearts of families and children with the Gospel in this new blend of worship and education.

Last Sunday the Voters’ approved Megan’s request for a peaceful release from her call.  We thank the Lord for the witness of faith that Megan has been and continues to be for our congregation.  We pray for the Lord’s blessings on all that the Lord has in store for her.  Thank you Megan.
