St Luke’s is a Christian community in Clovelly, seeking to serve the people of Clovelly as we serve Christ.

We believe not only that people matter but that relationships matter, and that there is nothing more important than good, healthy & loving relationships. We’re ordinary people who’ve discovered God’s extraordinary love for us through Jesus and that has truly changed everything, especially our relationships, and given us hope, meaning and purpose.

We welcome everyone to join us on Sundays and then explore ways to connect with God, with our church community, and to join us in serving our local community.

Sunday services

> 9.30am – ‘Classic’ service – a service based on the Anglican prayerbook, with great music, the Lord’s supper, and morning tea. For those nourished by traditions that have stood the test of time.
> 4pm – ‘Contemporary’ service – Luke’s at four is a relaxed and informal service for all ages, with our Kids Church programme running concurrently in the hall. Plus supper for all.

What happens on Sundays?

Our Sunday gatherings are the highlight of our life together. Each Sunday we pray for our community & our world, we hear from the Bible, we sing Jesus’ praises, and we eat together afterwards. We run a kids programme at the Luke’s at four afternoon service. And we do our best to take your questions seriously. The services go for about an hour.

What’s on for kids?

Kids Church at Luke’s at four caters for preschool up to year 8, in three separate age groups [preschool, K-3, yrs 4-8]. Kids Church runs alongside the 4pm service: we all start together in the church building, and after a kids’ song/item the children head into the hall next door their programme. This typically consists of the children learning a bible story, some play time, craft, singing a few songs, and the kids then sit down for some supper that we provide. All of our kids church carers have been trained & accredited to safely care for children by the Anglican Church.

And there’s more to our community life!

Our church family is made up of a number of Community Groups – these are localised groups of 6-12 people learning how to follow Jesus together, and usually meet mid-week to read the Bible, pray, and eat. For those investigating Christianity, we run the LIFE course periodically (contact us for more info).
