The Watch – This has been a very meaningful experience for many in our parish in years past. Jesus asked His disciples on the night in which He was betrayed to watch and pray with Him for one hour. Will you accept Jesus’ invitation to watch and pray with Him in the Garden of Gethsemane? On Maundy Thursday, April 14th after the Tenebrae service and throughout the night you are invited to come to the church and pray in Anne’s Chapel for one hour. There are Scripture/Meditation guides available to lead you through this time. We want to have 2 people present throughout the night for this prayer vigil. You don’t have to sign up to participate but it helps us to know you are coming so that we can have someone praying at every hour through the night into Good Friday morning. You can sign up on the bulletin board by Greene Hall or by emailing or calling Regina in the church office. parish@stlukesgladstone.org.

Here are just some of the themes that James addresses to the church in tumultuous times: spiritual battle, fellowship in the church, caring for those in need, developing an every-day Christian lifestyle, controlling our speech, healing of the sick, patience in suffering, praying in faith, equality, God as the gracious giver, wisdom, and more.
