Special Services


At St Luke’s there is always something happening. We often have special activities or Services. We have the Services that you would expect at Easter [Maundy Thursday Lord’s Supper; Good Friday Devotional; Easter Day Celebration] and Christmas [Traditional Lessons and Carols; Family Carols; Christmas Eve Carols by Candlelight; Christmas Day Family Worship].

Communion Services are always held on the first Sunday of March, June, September and December. We also share in the Lord’s Supper on other times as announced such as occasionally at Church on Wednesday.

Kirking of the Tartan is held on the last Sunday in July.

We also depending on the calendar of events recognise Reformation Sunday, St Luke’s Day, Pentecost, Palm Sunday, Mother’s Day; Father’s Day.

100 years Anniversary - 7th and 8th August 2010, we will be celebrating 100 years sing the commencement of Presbyterian Services in Roseville.

In other words if you come along there is life and activity all year round.

Community 

St Luke’s is a community minded family church and welcomes visitors and newcomers to our activities and services. We also have social activities, picnics and outings together.

Our Annual Fete is held on the Saturday of the week before Mother’s Day.  So in 2011 it will be held on the 7th May.  This is a great occasion with many and varied stalls and a hall full of Trash and Treasure.   Some of our property users do demonstrations during the morning such as Tai Chi and various Martial Arts.   Frequently we have Scottish Pipers from Knox Pipe Band.  The fete takes various shapes as a full-blown Tartan Fair or a more simplified Giant Garage Sale but whatever form it takes in a particular year there is always fun, food, fellowship and some great bargains.

At the front corner of our property we have a Clothing Bin for the community use.   The used clothing and items which go into the bin are sorted at the Presbyterian Social Services Recycling Depot at Croyden.   Good items gleaned from the binds  are available to the needy of the community, whilst the unusable items are sold for rags and the rest goes in to the After-A-Fashion  Opportunity Shops scattered around the city.  The profit from this then helps in the PSS work in providing financial support to the ill, aged and destitute, and in particular helps support a chaplain at the Westmead Children’s Hospital and a chaplain to the Deaf Ministry. Please use this Bin with items that you may no longer need but which can be of great assistance to others.
