BMOC
All men of the church and visitors are welcome at our BMOC (Being Men of Christ) activities. On the fourth Monday of most months we meet in the Parish Hall for a time of fellowship, dinner and a speaker. Our speakers come from both inside and outside the church and talk about what it means to be a man of Christ. We are blessed to have the dinners provided by the Hog Heaven Barbeque team which has won the island BBQ cook-off two years in a row!

Reservations are required for the dinners and can be made through the contact form at the bottom of this page. Throughout the year we have other events for men such as attending a minor league baseball game in Savannah and a golf outing.
Each Advent season we host a Christmas Dinner and Songfest for men and their wives or women friends. Attendance at this event is limited by the number of people we can seat in the Parish Hall so tickets are required and must be purchased in advance. The church office may be contacted for ticket information. Contact Hart Joseph If you would like any additional information on this group. |
Nearly 100 enjoyed the 2012 Christmas Dinner and Songfest on December 10.

Intercessory Prayer Group
The Intercessory Prayer group meets each week from 11 to 12 p.m. each Wednesday in the Prayer Room, just after the 10:00 service. We gladly welcome anyone who wants to come pray with us during this hour.
The hour is spent together in prayer for the church clergy and staff, church services, families, leaders, youth, children, missionaries, those in the military and any special requests that we have received. Special prayer concerns are then mailed out to the intercessory prayer chain for daily prayer during the following week.
For prayer concerns that come in between meetings, an email prayer chain is used. If you would like to be a part of the prayer chain ministry via mail or email let us know.
Prayer needs or a desire to participate in the prayer chain may be communicated in any of these ways:

MOANS
Mothers Of Adolescents Needing Support (M.O.A.N.S.) supports and assists mothers who are raising adolescents. We do this by giving guidance and support to mothers who are navigating the somewhat turbulent years of raising teens and pre-teens. They may feel alone or frightened during these parenting years. We are here to share Biblical guidelines and practical experience.
Real MOMS
Mothers Offering Mutual Support (M.O.M.S) was rechristened Real MOMS at St. Luke’s. We focus on young mothers, usually with children under the age of 13. When children exceed that age, their moms “graduate” to Mothers Of Adolescents Needing Support (M.O.A.N.S.).
Real MOMS is a Bible-study based group for young mothers that has the goal of developing devoted disciples of Jesus Christ. Through our group, older women mentor young women according to the model in Titus 2:2. Real MOMS is a teaching and training ministry which includes support for parenting and marriage skills. We hope to train young moms to teach their children, love their husbands and be a part of the community by serving in God’s name. All our study material is Bible based. We often study books on marriage, parenting, or being a woman who is seeking God in her life.
Also, we are encouragers. We take food to new moms after a baby is born; we share the life experiences of mothering and being a spiritual friend; and we minister to the whole family with family outings and social events. We have taken two bus trips to Beth Moore conferences in the last two years after studying Beth Moore material.
