Arkansas Cursillo: A Journey #2 Accepting Applications Now
The Journey is a weekend retreat designed to enliven the Christian faith by discovering Jesus' will for your life. It is based on a method of living the Christian life hat has been presented in many denominations for over 70 years. It is a method that works! It focuses on how the resources of our faith strengthen and support our apostleship, and emphasizes those elements of doctrine and discipline which empower us to reach out. It also offers a method for ongoing support.
The weekend retreat will be held at Camp Mitchell on Petit Jean Mountain on October 23-25, 2015. It will be led by Eric Savage and a team of both clergy and lay persons. It is open to ALL adult individuals of ANY denomination. Those persons who have previously attended a 3-day weekend are welcome to attend. Attendees at the first Journey weekend gave it glowing reviews!
We encourage you to attend and to invite your friends from other denominations. More information about the weekend and an application form can be found here on the Arkansas Cursillo website. Cost for the retreat is $145 which includes all lodging, meals and materials.

Outreach Opportunities
Blue Barrel: In keeping with the month for Blessing of the Animals, the famous BLUE BARREL in the narthex will be a collection point in the month of October for the youth project to help with animal shelters, in particular the Humane Society of Pulaski County. Things needed that you can drop off include Purina dog/cat chow and Purina puppy/kitten food, play toys and chew toys (no rope toys, please), collars, bath towels, hand sanitizer, newspapers stainless buckets for water, and office supplies (to help with administrative needs). Things for horses are also welcome. For a complete list, check the list on the side of the Blue Barrel or the Humane Society website. Also, the youth have painted dog houses as part of this service project. [Many thanks to the men and parents of the parish, in particular, Fred Smith and Rick Pozza, for helping with the construction of these dog houses!] These painted dog houses will be given to the Humane Society to help them auction off to raise money; watch the St. Luke's Facebook page for pictures of these dog houses! For more information on the October project, contact Jennifer Green or Claire Green.
Donations for Homeless Shelter: We will continue to collect toiletries (e.g., toothpaste, shampoo, soap, hand cream, hand sanitizer, etc.) for area homeless shelters. A small BLUE top bin is available in the narthex for you to bring things you would like to donate to help our area homeless shelters with. For more information on this project, contact Tommie Williams.
ST. FRANCIS HOUSE is seeking help from area churches to provide children (ages infant to age 12) with Christmas presents of either toys or clothing or both. Perhaps you or your family might want to help one child or several children, or perhaps your organization might be interested in helping with a gift for one child or gifts for several children. Presents may be wrapped or unwrapped, but if they are wrapped, please place a tag on the outside of the gift stating the age of the child for the gift. At this time, we are just trying to find out if any of you are interested in helping with this so that we can respond to St. Francis House with the number of children that St. Luke's parishioners are willing to help. If enough folks are interested in helping with this, we will provide you with the location and date for drop off of the toys and clothing in the future. If you are interested in helping with this or want additional information, please contact Jeannie Fry or Deacon Joanna by no later than Sunday, November 8th.
