Welcome to St. Luke’s Religious Education Home Page
Our Religious Education program exists to support and enable parents to honor the commitment made at the baptism of their children. At baptism you as parents promised to raise your children in the faith. We as church made a commitment to assist you in this process.
As we continue together in our journey in faith, this year we will focus on the theme: "SOWERS OF THE SEED."
It is the goal of Religious Education to bring the young, and not so young, to know more fully and deeply the Word of God, Jesus The Christ. In St. Luke's Gospel we hear the Parable of the Sower. In the parable we are told that the seed falls in different places with different outcomes. So, too, the outcome of how we sow the seed will either bring others to know Christ more fully and deeply or not. Our mission as "Sowers of The Seed", is to be diligent and prepare the soil with care and love. In so doing it will be received with care and love and grow and prosper.
In the 28th chapter of St. Matthew's Gospel we hear the great commission of Christ, to "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you." Let us together support and encourage our young people to live as Christ lived, and in so doing further the Kingdom by sowing the seeds of Christ's love, wherever they go. Helping our young people to grow in this understanding is the ultimate goal of our Religious Education Program.
