Outreach at St. Luke’s

Our mission is to be the hands of Christ in our local community by volunteering, fundraising, and providing financial support to organizations that serve people experiencing mental health issues, homelessness, and poverty. Through our actions, we seek to partner and build relationships between St. Luke’s and the community.
