A reminder that incense will be used in celebration of All Saints, this Sunday during the 11:10 am service. 
TONIGHT: Bayou Bash
Our school's annual Bayou Bash is a treasured tradition, and the whole St. Luke's community is invited! Look forward to games, a rock climbing wall, "toddler park," face painting, a book and cake walk, and a BRPD k9 demonstration. Go enjoy it! $15 admission. 3:30 pm-6:30 pm. 
Children's Choir
During the 9 am service this Sunday, the children will perform "He'll do a lot with a little." Join us in Children's Chapel to practice! Before the service begins, you'll see a Children's Chapel adult leader carrying a special banner near the church entrance. Meet there! 

Thank you to all of our spectacular Spooktacular volunteers! It was another great event—full of smiles, games, costumes, candy, and lots of happy children. More photos HERE...  

Top Box will be at St. Luke's on Saturday, Nov. 9 at 11 am to distribute boxes of healthy, affordable food items. Orders are due by Monday, November 4! As their website notes: "Anyone can order Top Box Foods and everyone should! Each person who buys a box helps expand the Top Box Foods community, which increases purchasing power and savings."

1) Hop over to their website to place an order, or give 'em a call at (225) 242-9667.
2) Tell your friends, neighbors, and co-workers about this opportunity.
3) Swing by St. Luke's at 11 am on November 9 to pick up your fresh food!


Two dozen friends joined our "Aged to Perfection" road trip to Middendorf's recently. Gloria McKenzie notes, "We enjoyed German and Cajun foods, servers in dirndls and lederhosen, German accordion music, and lots of laughter and fellowship.  ATP's next event will be a Christmas Lunch in Pope Hall on Saturday, December 7. More details to come!" And more photos HERE... 
LAST CALL: Journey to the Holy Land
