This Sunday, 25th October, is the last Sunday after Trinity (Proper 25) when we ponder on Jesus's words: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbour as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” .
The lectionary readings are:
Deuteronomy 34:1-12 or Leviticus 19: 1-2, 15-18
Psalm 90:1-6,13-17 or Psalm 1
1 Thessalonians 2:1-8
Matthew 22:34-46
The collect for the last Sunday after Trinity:
Blessed Lord, who caused all holy Scriptures to be written for our learning: help us so to hear them, to read, mark, learn and inwardly digest them that, through patience, and the comfort of your holy word, we may embrace and for ever hold fast the hope of everlasting life, which you have given us in our Saviour Jesus Christ, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen
Our service this week will be Holy Communion, led by Michael Mills, at the usual time of 09.30. If you are unable to come, or if you would like to think about this theme before you come, here is a video on this theme recorded in 2020.
Harvest Thanks!
Harvest Thanks!
Many thanks to everyone who helped to make our Harvest Festival a success: to Michael for leading our service, Sheila who donated the sandwiches, Glenda and Clare who made delicious soup, Judy who baked the apple pies, the helpers who prepared the hall or served food on the day, donors of home-made preserves for sale and items for the foodbank, and everyone who came to the service or the community lunch.
A good time was had by all, as you can see in these pictures, for which we thank James, who also took care of the money.
We are pleased to report that foodbank donations amounted to 78.2Kg of much-needed supplies for local families in need.

Searching through one of the filing cabinets in the vestry turned up this interesting document from the past this. It's a newspaper produced by the Sunday School children in 2000 to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the setting up of our ecumenical Sunday School back in 1990. Sadly numbers dwindled and the Sunday School closed in 2004, but we are now thinking of ways of getting children and young people involved with St Luke's again. If you have any ideas for doing this please let us know!
If you would like to read it all, you can download a PDF version of the whole newspaper.
