Christmas Bake Sale Supports Youth Mission Trip
You are invited to take part in our Christmas Bake Sale on Sundays, December 7, 14, and 21.
Each week offers a joyful chance to support the youth mission trip simply by picking up a plate of homemade Christmas treats. You may bless a neighbor, teacher, family member, YOURSELF(!) or anyone who might enjoy a sweet reminder of care during this season.
A suggested donation of five dollars per plate helps our youth grow in faith through service and prepares them for their upcoming mission experience.
You are also invited to learn more about the mission trip and the wider youth ministries here at St. Luke.
Your support, prayers, and encouragement help our young people discover God’s grace at work in their lives and in the world.
ℹ️ About mission work: God is already there. So why do we go? (click to open)
We believe God is already present in the world, so for us, mission is about joining God’s work, not imposing something new. Jesus’ saving work has been fully accomplished on the cross. So, we love, serve, and give freely in response to the profound love, grace, and forgiveness we have received.
This reorientation changes our entire approach. We bring our genuine selves without any strings attached and without claiming to have all the answers, creating space for sincere connections and meeting real-world needs, recognizing that God is God and we are not.
This is the greatest leap of faith possible: believing wholeheartedly the Gospel good news alone, and the authentic love and service inspired by it, can truly change hearts and lives. Saving is Jesus’ work. In response, serving is ours.
