Compliments of the citizenry of Scituate !!! 

St. Luke's will be collecting the recyclable bottles and cans (soda, etc.) at the Scituate Transfer Station starting next Monday (July 16th) thru the end of the month (Tuesday July 31st).

With the hot weather we are expecting to really "clean up" :-)  Of course the money is not completely free, we do need to get the bottles and cans to the Cohasset Redemption Center where they will be turned into money :-)  If you don't live in Scituate or maybe you don't know where the Scituate Transfer Station is don't let that stop you from getting involved,  we can make sure you get in.

So if you would like to help just send an email to lmcd28@aol.com or call (781) 545-0273 and be sure to say hello to your fellow St Luke'rs on your trip to the Transfer Station over the next couple of weeks :-)      

Rev. Stan Hardy is our new Director of Acolytes. He will be contacting all current acolytes to inquire about availability for scheduling and hopes to recruit/train new volunteers. For more information, please call him at 781-837-3360 or email: sphardy99@gmail.com   Thanks to Lisa Rafferty for her many years of service in this role.

Watch for a new worship offering at St. Luke's this fall!

Co-chaired by Bill Lincoln and Maureen Keys.

We invite you to share the abundance of your garden at St. Luke's Farm Stand on Sundays throughout the summer.

Please bring in your potted plants, flowers and herbs for transplanting, any early crops for sharing.  All of the items are free for swapping or sharing, but if you want to make a small donation all proceeds will benefit the local food pantries.  Please label all pots.

We are in need of two items. If any parishioners would like to donate said item or make a contribution toward the purchase of same, the church would be extremely grateful.

• 2 Baby Swings for the Nursery
• A tent with side flaps (10' x 20' or larger)

The tent is much needed for future fundraisers and will help to generate revenue and finally the swings would alleviate a growing need in the Nursery.

 

Effective June 18th through August 17th, Martha's office hours will be Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday from 8 AM to 1 PM.
Please leave a message via phone, 545-9482 or email stlukes.scituate@verizon.net. Thank you.
