A Mural Toward New Community Vision

 

St. Luke’s has a new look- a mural of six Black saints on the front sidewalk of our church by artist Hue Love. It’s a hopeful offering of six of the stories of faith that are meaningful to us at St Luke’s, intended to spark helpful conversation amongst our neighbors and realign the church as a place of inclusion and empowerment. Already, we’ve gotten peeks into the transformation that is happening in our neighborhood. A few weeks ago, my daughter and I overheard a young African American man as he looked at our mural, saying aloud to his friends, “Wow, my perspective just broadened.” 

St Luke’s has long been a church of Black saints, even before our work of intentionally engaging with them. That effort began a few years ago, when it became clear that our children needed to hear more stories of faith about people who looked like them, and, in doing so, learn about the particular saints who left a legacy of ongoing devotion in the adults of our community. We wanted to lean into that waterfall of faith: the witness of the ancestors (saints) who inspired faithfulness in our church’s elders, who could, in turn, invite our children (and all of us) to walk more boldly and fully as followers of Jesus. In other words – discipleship by storytelling.

All Are Not Welcome: The Downfall of the Episcopal Church and How to Reform Her

The film features the Rev. Jake Dell, author of the forthcoming memoir “Exile and Return” (Good Hill Books, Nov. 17, 2026); podcaster and vestry member Ann Jambor; the Rev. Ian Montgomery; and the Rev. John Jordan. Combining archival footage with firsthand accounts, it traces the denomination’s changes from the late 20th century to the present — on sexuality, marriage, abortion, gender, biblical authority, clergy discipline and the power of bishops over local congregations. Its title engages the Episcopal Church’s best-known

St. Luke's North Park is a Christian community praising God and seeking justice and healing in this dynamic neighborhood of San Diego since 1923.  We strive to create spaces for God’s grace to form life-changing relationships with Christ and each other across lines of prejudice and privilege. In the past three decades, God has led us to a new blessing: to serve as one of the primary congregations and cultural centers for South Sudanese Americans in the city, and more recently, for former Congolese refugees. Worshiping with our diverse community is a joyous experience that includes singing in Arabic and Swahili, and individuals from around the globe and the U.S., united by our found “home” at St. Luke’s and in Christ.  Our infant, toddler, children, and youth ministries are full and thriving, thanks be to God! We are proud partners with RefugeeNet, a non-profit dedicated to the well-being of refugee families. We’re also grateful to host sixteen twelve-step support meetings on campus each week. St. Luke's North Park is a Christian community seeking justice and healing in San Diego's North Park neighborhood. We dream to be a place where all people can enter into uncomfortable and brave spaces with others different than themselves -- different races, ethnicities, classes, creeds, sexual orientations, and gender identities -- and find their perspectives and hearts transformed. We follow a God who loves each of us especially for who we are and desires that every single human among us has all she or he needs to thrive in this world. Until that day comes, we will work alongside God's powerful Spirit to do justice in this hurting world and help all people find a loving and dignified home.

St. Luke’s is excited to host Joy Camp, June 22–26, in partnership with the Episcopal Diocese of San Diego and Trinity Methodist. Joy Camp brings a diverse group of kids together for a week of fun, friendship, and spiritual formation. Through songs, prayer, creative skits, art, and hands-on activities, campers will explore key stories from the Bible and discover how the teachings of Jesus can guide their everyday lives. They'll make new friends, laugh a lot, and experience the joy of being part of a wider community of kids learning and growing together in God’s expansive love. This year with God's help, we are delighted to offer Joy Camp as a free offering to all!  To help us make this a reality, we are deeply grateful for your contributions, which you can make through the online form below.
