Gun Violence Prevention Group

The St. Luke’s Gun Violence Prevention Group (GVP) meets regularly to seek ways that we can prevent gun violence in our community. The group has the following events planned for fall of 2024.

* September 28, at the pre-Convention Zoom workshop of the Diocesan GVP group, our partners in the Colorado Faith Communities Against Gun Violence (CFCU) will present a slide-show on the state-wide statistics they've assembled in background to our December 5 Forum.  That workshop is open to everyone. 

* October 3-5, at the Annual Convention of the Colorado Episcopal Diocese, St. Luke's will be organizing an exhibit booth handing out information and safe-storage devices like cable-locks provided by our police services. 

* December 5, at the InterFaith Council meeting at Trinity Lutheran Church, our collaboration will be presenting a Forum titled "Ordinary People Can Prevent Gun Violence", with professionals addressing concerns with regard to children and teens, threats against self, and threats against others, along with an explanation of Extreme Risk Protection Orders. 

Faith Family Hospitality

You and your family have an opportunity to share God's love with local families who are experiencing homelessness.

How? St. Luke's is one of several churches in a rotation that provides a week of housing for 4-5 homeless families. You can volunteer to help with setup, evening or overnight hosting, meal preparation, breakfast food donation, or tear down. Your prayers and good wishes are always most welcome.  

St. Luke’s has transitioned from a host church to a support church role to engage and strengthen our congregational participation in this vital ministry.  For this purpose, FFH has paired St. Luke's with Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church. We also plan to further engage the congregation in understanding the magnitude of those experiencing homelessness in our community.

Larimer County Food Bank

The mission of the Larimer County Food Bank is "to reduce hunger in Larimer County, Colorado through programs that collect, process, store and distribute food to individuals and in cooperation with agencies that serve those in need." St. Luke’s supports the Larimer County Food Bank by collecting food the first Sunday of each month. By following the link below you can find a list of the most needed items. Please bring your donation to the altar and place it in or near the collection basket. If you would like more information on how you might take a more active role in directly supporting the food bank, please visit their website.
