Sunday, December 8 -- The Second Sunday of Advent
HOLY EUCHARIST - 10:00 A.M.
Join us for our service of Holy Eucharist. This week, as is our custom on Second Sundays,
we bless the non-perishable foodstuffs we have gathered for the Center for Food Action
in Englewood. We also wrap up our Secret Santa Toy and Pet Supplies drive today -- for the
children served by Youth Consultation Services in Hackensack and inner city children near
Jersey City -- and supplies for the pets rescued by the local Animal Aid USA caravan.
After the service, Coffee and Fellowship Hour follows in the Parish Hall.
"Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near." This is the one of whom the
prophet Isaiah spoke when he said, "The voice of one crying in the wilderness
'Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.'"
-- Matthew 3: 1-3
HEALING SERVICE
The Almighty Lord, who is a strong tower to all who put their trust in him,
to whom all things in heaven, on earth, and under the earth bow and obey:
Be now and evermore your defense, and make you know and feel that
the only Name under heaven given for health and salvation is
the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. (The Book of Common Prayer, 1979)
Join us on the Third Sunday of the month for a quiet Healing Service.
The service takes place in the Chapel following the main Sunday service.

St. Luke’s is a loving, inclusive, Christ-centered faith community in the Episcopal Diocese of Newark in Northern New Jersey. We
seek to be a bridge between traditions and communities. We welcome anyone who wants to learn and grow in the knowledge and love of God.
Families, couples and singles, young and not-as-young as we used to be, we come from many traditions, backgrounds and perspectives, but we live together with confidence in the abundance of life found in the life, death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. Trusting in the Holy Spirit for inspiration, we seek to be the body of Christ in our part of the world.
We gather weekly to celebrate God’s love and grace toward all God’s creation. We sing, pray, listen to and study the Holy Scripture, hearing how God forgives our sins, enlightens our minds, stirs our hearts and strengthens our wills. In community we gather to support, encourage and share fellowship with one another and to reach out to the community and the world around us.
If you do not currently have a church home because you’re new, returning or searching, then come -- just as you are -- and worship
with us.
