Easter Worship - 9 am on Sunday, April 9th

followed by an Easter Egg Hunt for all ages

We have discontinued Zoom broadcast of our worship service, but hope to continue Facebook Live streaming. We would love to have you join us in person, if possible, at 9 am on Sunday! Communion is celebrated most Sundays, and coffee and light refreshments are available following the worship service. In accordance with CDC guidelines, masks are optional.

What We Believe

When Lutherans talk about faith,
we are talking about the relationship God’s Holy Spirit creates with us. It’s a relationship where God’s promise of steadfast love and mercy in Jesus opens us to a life of bold trust in
God and joyful, generous service
to everyone we know and meet in daily life.

About Us

St. Luke's Lutheran Church was founded in Sidney, NY, in 1953.
Our unique church building was designed by an architect inspired by the surrounding rolling hills,
and was constructed in 1966.
A community center, which serves as a fellowship hall and meeting place, was added in 2004. Over
the years, we have been served
by a diverse group of pastors, several of whom have come from non-Lutheran denominational backgrounds.

Our Mission

We welcome all people, based
upon the foundation of God’s grace and mercy. Inspired by God's love, we offer healing and hope for all.
