Welcome

Welcome to St Luke's

Nestled in the heart of Bear Poplar/Mt Ulla, North Carolina, St. Luke's is dedicated to proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ through worship, prayer, and ministry to our community. We are here for all who…

  • Need the Bible's message and the Christian faith to come alive, make sense and make a difference in today’s world
  • Appreciate worship that engages the mind and touches the heart
  • Seek to find purpose in life and use their God given gifts
  • Yearn for lasting relationships in genuine Christian community
  • Desire balance in their fast-paced lives, a place of retreat where life slows down and is renewed

Will you come to grow, and worship, and serve with us?  We hope to see you soon!

    Worship for October 4, 2026
    19th Sunday After Pentecost and Holy Communion

    This week we will hear the messages entitled, "Turning Away as Strength."  We hope you can come hear what Pastor Robert has to say about the parable of the Vineyard Owner and the Evil Tenants and how we can relate that parable to strength.  We will share Holy Communion at the Altar this Sunday.  Before worship we will have our First Sunday Breakfast and Joint Sunday School.  We are excited to see the Biblical Wax Museum portrayed by our children and youth.  If you are unable to attend in person, please join us online at the link below.

  • St. Luke's Hand Bell Choir

    We started our practices back on August 16 after taking a few weeks off for the summer.  We normally practice on Sunday afternoons at 5:00 p.m. in our Sanctuary as we prepare upcoming specials.  

    We are still in need of a few players in order to use all our bells.  If you have ever thought about playing hand bells, please contact Jody Perrell.  We work to play a special each month.  And, of course, we plan specials for Easter and Christmas seasons.  We are working on a Thanksgiving special.  Please come join our Hand Bell Choir!

    Please continue to pray and support our St. Luke's Hand Bell Choir.

  • Chancel Choir Practice - Choir Room (Sanctuary Bldg)

    Our Chancel Choir practices each Wednesday at 7:00 p.m. in the Choir Room behind the Sanctuary.  We are now practicing specials to sing for the Christian Season of Pentecost including pulling some of our old anthems from our files. 

    We started our practices for the 2026 Christmas Cantata on Wednesday, August 19.  We welcome you to join us for this special Christmas celebration.  This year's program is scheduled for Sunday, December 13, 2026, during our 10:00 a.m. worship.

    If you would like to help in the choir with any worship services, it is not too late to join us!!  Please come join our Chancel Choir at any time.  We love getting together and praising God through fellowship and song! 

  • Senior Rockers Update

    We have decided to cancel September's meeting due to all the activities around the move of our old Parsonage.  We do plan to get together in October.  We'll let you know what's on the menu and how you can help.  See you then!  

    If you are retired or simply off from work, please join us for lunch and fellowship!  We enjoy time eating and visiting!   If you have any ideas for programs, please let Alice Weaver know.
