Margery Dodge shares with us some personal reasons for inviting others to come to St. Luke's. A few Sundays ago, my daughter visiting from Texas, attended church with me. St. Luke's provided the community of faith which has profoundly affected her life. Several Sundays later, a friend of 62 years standing, visited St. Luke's where she too had been nourished through sweet times and sad. She remembered, but her thoughts move also to the present as she affirmed what her churches in Arizona and Illinois meant to her, and how her commitment began in the pews which you are now occupying.
Someone has to do the inviting.
For some of you it was a friend, and for others it was the nudging of the Holy Spirit. Be sensitive to someone you know who needs to be asked to help fill a pew. Love one another, and take each other home. Anticipation St. Luke's church is on the edge of an exciting adventure. Long discussed dreams are becoming close to reality as the Capital Campaign approaches.
