WORSHIP AND FELLOWSHIP AT ST. LUKE
1
FOCUS ON WORSHIP
WORSHIP DURING THE SEASON OF EASTER: Easter is the celebration of the Resurrection of Christ,
the “queen of feasts,” of the Church year. Easter celebrates an event so great that it cannot be limited to one
day. Thus, Easter consists of fifty days--a “week of weeks.” Beginning with the Vigil of Easter and
continuing through-out the Easter season, up to Pentecost Sunday. The candelabras are lit; and the lighted
Paschal Candle is appropriately placed near the Gospel side of the altar.
The theme of the season is the Resurrection of Christ, looking towards Christ’s Restoration to His Heavenly
Glory. The resurrection of Jesus, which Easter celebrates, is a foundation of the Christian faith. – The
resurrection established Jesus as the Son of God and is cited as proof that God will judge the world in
righteousness. God has given Christians "a new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ
from the dead". Christians, through faith in the working of God are spiritually resurrected with Jesus so that
they may walk in a new way of life.
PASCHAL CANDLE: The Paschal candle is placed in the chancel and lighted for each liturgy during the fifty
days of Easter. At times other than the Easter season, the Paschal candle is kept in its stand near the baptismal
font as a visual reminder of the connection between Baptism and Easter. It is lighted for each celebration of
Baptism.

A Note from Pastor Fred
May 9, 1970
On that beautiful day I walked down the aisle of Christ Church Cathedral in
Springfield, MA and married Lesley Ann Cole. It was a pretty big wedding
given that Lesley is an only daughter. I accused her mother of sending
invitations out to 'Occupant' in a ten mile radius of their house.
Now it is forty-nine years later, two children and five grandchildren are in our
lives. We have moved nine times and I have lost count of the cars that have
come and gone through our lives. We have hundreds of Kodachrome slides up
in the attic that we have talked about putting on a CD. It will probably never
happen. Over our piano is the first item we bought together before we were
married, a still life of musical instruments. In the hall stands a grandfather clock
I bought for her as a wedding present.
I have often said that we have never had a fight, we merely have furious
disagreements. We have had our moments of silence and moments of silly
laughter. These days we go a little slower and are surprised at how we look
when we look into a mirror. As the days and months and years go by, I realize
what a gift God gave me.
And so in front of everyone at St. Luke, Happy 49th Anniversary sweetie, I would
do it all over again.
In Peace,
Pastor Fred

So please invite your family and friends with young'uns to our camp. Summer Music Camp will be held from 9:00am to 3:00pm, Monday through Friday, July 15th through July 19th. During the camp, children in grades K - 8 will learn their lines, songs and dances; and help create costumes and sets for the show:
“The Rockslinger and His Greatest Hit” This show is about David and Goliath and told with funny stories, singing and dancing. Upon registration, links to the songs and will be available for campers to listen to before camp. LUNCH is provided each day. Campers are encouraged to bring snacks in bulk to share. On Friday evening July 20th, the campers will perform the show at 6:30pm at St. Luke Lutheran Church. Tuesday, May 28 at 7:00pm, “The Chesterfield Jazz Ensemble” will present a concert here at St. Luke! Who wouldn't love an 18 piece Jazz Band? There will also be a "Start of Summer Supper" at 5:30pm. This is in the planning stage so more details to follow. Wednesday, June 5 - “Imani Milele” returns to St. Luke! This high energy, fun children's choir from Uganda tours the United States each year and we are fortunate to host them again this year. Stay tuned for more details! If you would like to host a few members of the choir please contact me. Peace, Richard Barnett Director of Music St. Luke Lutheran Church Do you like to sing or play handbells? We have a great chancel choir and a great handbell choir. Many of these folks have been choir members for years, but we are always looking for newcomers! If you’ve previously sang or played handbells in a church choir, sang in a high school choir or college choir, we invite you to come check us out on Thursday evenings. If you’ve never sung anywhere, you are still invited. Can you play an instrument? Musicians are also invited. Please consider joining us. It's a fun way to be involved in church life and to contribute to our worship service. I hope to see you at one of our choir rehearsals!

SANCTUARY FLOWERS
Would you like to place Flowers
on the Altar on Sunday?
If so, please sign up on the
Flower Chart in the Fellowship Hall.
Questions?
Please see the information below
or call the Office at 804-272-0486.
Altar Flower Dedications
The Ministry of flowers is an important part of the Sunday Service at St. Luke Lutheran. Flowers are used
to beautify our sanctuary and are a gift to God and those who attend Worship services.
Altar flowers may be dedicated to “The Glory of God”, “In Memory of” a loved one or “In Honor of” a
special person, an anniversary, birthday, birth, baptism or other special event.
More than one person may find a certain date important so flowers may be given in more than one name on any given Sunday.
If you would like to donate and dedicate flowers for any Sunday service, arrangements cost $27.00 each. You will be billed
directly from Coleman Brothers Flowers and the flowers will be delivered to the church.
The flowers are yours to take home after the service that Sunday or you can ask that they be taken to one of our ill or home-
bound members.
Please return the container the flowers are in to the church at your convenience. You may sign up on the chart located in the
fellowship hall.
The Flower Chart Calendar
The 2019 Flower Calendar is hanging in the fellowship hall. To those of you who give flowers every year during the same time frame, thank you. If you’re new to St. Luke or haven’t signed up yet to provide Sunday Altar Flowers, won’t you consider doing so? Flowers may be given in more than one name on any given Sunday. If your date seems to be taken, please sign up anyway or call the church office to do so. Flowers can be planned for a date on or near your special date, to occur yearly. Just let us know and we will automatically add your info to the Flower Calendar each year. If you have any questions or would like more information about Altar Flowers, please contact Tammy in the office at 804-272-0486 ext. 1 or [email protected]. You can also contact Jean Stewart, our sacristan, at 804-276-2690. Thank you.
