“the Word that kills and makes alive”

St. Luke's Episcopal Church

On August 13th we visited St. Luke’s for the 10:30 service to welcome the new pastoral family to North Park and to hear one member of the new pastoral team deliver the word that morning.

Most sober minded Christians these days do not expect to hear the Gospel of the Kingdom preached in an Episcopal Church however we are here to bear witness to a great surprise. The preacher, Veronica Kiju spoke in English and was interpreted into Sudanese Arabic very capably by Joseph Jok. The house heard “the Word that kills and makes alive” spoken by this prophet of God. Fr. Michael and Veronica Kiju are from Africa via the Sudan, Uganda and Kenya and will be ministering to a largely African congregation in this their newest assignment.

St. Luke’s website has not been updated for some time but do take a look and from time to time revisit to see what the Lord is doing on 30th Street in 92104.

On Sunday, September 10th, there will be one service only at 9:00 am. At 4:00 pm Fr. Michael Kiju Paul will be installed as the new Rector* of St. Luke’s. Immediately after the service a celebration dinner will be held.
