Parish Administration
Both paid professional staff and volunteer lay leaders support the everyday business of the parish. In addition, a cadre of volunteer lay leaders serve internal ministries of the parish, and outreach programs that serve the larger community. The Rector directs the professional staff and works closely with the lay leaders. Rector and staff offices are located in St. Luke’s Parish House.
