Acts 2:42
They devoted themselves to the apostle’s teaching and fellowship, to the breaking of the bread and the prayers.
At the Crossing at St. Luke’s, we seek to honor, praise, and glorify God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit through worship, offering up our voices in contemporary songs of praise, our words in the ancient Scriptures and prayers, and our bodies in the service of God and neighbor.
Our worship is shaped by the Book of Common Prayer, is founded in the faith and traditions of the apostolic church, and is designed to offer a formal space for an intimate relationship with God. The order of our worship includes the following:
