St. Luke Lutheran Church

St. Luke Lutheran Church, Richmond, VA

is located at the corner of Custis Road and Chippenham Parkway between the Forest Hill Avenue and Huguenot Road exits. We invite you to join us in worship, service, and love, and we look forward to welcoming you at 10:00 am on Sunday for our morning worship. We are a warm and inclusive Lutheran community, and worshipers are encouraged to dress comfortably (masks optional) and participate as they are able in the liturgically based service. We are a growing church and understand that newcomers are simply friends and members we do not yet know. Hope to see you soon!

If you are not ready or able to return to in-person worship yet, we continue to offer an online option for the Worship Service “Live” on our Facebook page. The complete service is printed in the Bulletin. The recorded service is available later, on this website (below) and on YouTube.

Fifth Sunday in Lent

Introduction

In today’s gospel Jesus reveals his power over death by raising Lazarus from the dead. The prophet Ezekiel prophesies God breathing new life into dry bones. To those in exile or living in the shadows of death, these stories proclaim God’s promise of resurrection. In baptism we die with Christ that we might also be raised with him to new life. At the Easter Vigil we will welcome the newly baptized as we remember God’s unfailing promise in our baptism.

Fourth Sunday in Lent

Introduction

Baptism is sometimes called enlightenment. The gospel for this Sunday is the story of the man born blind healed by Christ. “I was blind, now I see,” declares the man. In baptism God opens our eyes to see the truth of who we are: God’s beloved children. As David was anointed king of Israel, in baptism God anoints our head with oil, and calls us to bear witness to the light of Christ in our daily lives.

Our Lenten Appeal this year will support the Lutheran World Relief program bringing aid and long-term support to the areas of Turkey and Syria which have been so destroyed by earthquakes recently. 100% of your donation will go directly to disaster relief in the stricken areas, with no deduction for other expense. You may donate using the yellow button in the sidebar or below, marked “Donate.” It costs a small amount to use this online giving and you may choose whether to add that small amount to your donation, or we will pay it ourselves. Thank you for your support.
