St Luke’s Episcopal Church invites parishioners and the Baton Rouge community to join in a historic celebration this All Saints’ Sunday, November 2. The event will honor All Saints’ Day, include the joyous occasion of baptisms and mark the groundbreaking for the new St. Luke’s Church building and Pope Hall.This groundbreaking ceremony symbolizes a fresh start following the devastating loss of the original St. Luke’s Church building, which was destroyed by a fire in the early morning hours of February 17, 2024.
The Sunday service will begin with a special All Saints’ Day worship to honor the saints and the community’s enduring faith. Additionally, the church will celebrate the sacrament of baptism, welcoming new members into the spiritual family of St. Luke’s.
Following the service, all attendees will process to the church slab, where the ground will be ceremonially broken, signifying hope, renewal and the beginning of anew chapter for St. Luke’s. The slab will be broken up shortly after, marking the physical start of construction.
The festivities will continue back at Witter Hall with a community potluck lunch,fostering fellowship and shared joy among parishioners and community members.
