Epistle for Sept. 30, 2008

September 29th, 2008 · No Comments

The Epistle for September 30th, 2008, is now available. From Pastor Mark’s Epistle:

PASTOR MARK’S EPISTLE

Dear Friends,

A faint hope or wish became part of our
Vision. Then, surprisingly and more swiftly than we
could have imagined, that potential step moved close
to reality.

How it reads in our official St. Luke’s Vision
adopted in 2007 is simply “Consider acquiring adjacent
properties.” Through an amazing sequence of
events, resources have emerged and a willingness expressed
by the owner for acquisition of the two parcels
to our immediate northeast on Midland Avenue.

This Sunday at 12:10 p.m. in the Chapel, our
Church Council will consider a proposal from our
Trustees to purchase the property, utilizing funds
from a generous bequest (Ernestine Moore estate).
If approved, a Design Team will be appointed to
recommend next steps. Two frequently mentioned
possibilities for utilization are more play space for
youngsters and more parking, especially in view of
the Hospitality Center plans.

Please be in prayer as these kinds of opportunities
continue to emerge. God bless!

In Service, …Pastor Mark
