OVERSIGHT

St Luke's Executive consists of the Churchwardens and annually elected respresentatives who, together with the Ministry Support Team, meet as the Parish Council (Vestry) monthly. Five Task Groups develop and foster the day-to-day life of the community and all parishioners are encouraged to be on one of these groups.

 

Justice and Environment

Working on issues of justice and the care of creation at St Luke's and in the wider community

Hospitality and Community

Creating opportunities to become a more welcoming place which is inclusive of diversity and making St Luke's more visible and accessible to the wider community

Finance, Stewardship, and Resources

Managing and increasing our income, looking at expenditure, and exploring new ways of developing our resources

Property, Maintenance, and Grounds

Improving our facilities, being attentive to on-going maintenance requirements, and making sure the grounds and gardens are well tended
