Learn About Our History
One hundred and forty-seven years is a really long time. For many years after St. Luke’s was founded, it had been one of the leading historically Black churches in Washington DC in the area of civil rights, Black liberation, education and economic equity, and social justice reform. But as time went on, we’ve gotten away from that.
In 2020, we recommitted ourselves to being more like our forefathers and mothers, and living into our legacy. To shake things up and get into some “Good Trouble”. To develop allies, deepen networks, and work to end injustice however and wherever it manifests.
These presentations celebrate our beloved past, while also reminding us of who we are and who we’re meant to be in Christ.
We’d love for you to join us in this exciting call to action.
