The pews of Saint Luke's Methodist Church

Open hearts, open minds, open doors.

Welcome to St. Luke's

View of the church from the front

St. Luke's is a small church with a special feeling of intimacy and caring located in the Glover Park section of Washington, D.C.

Worship at St. Luke's is grounded in the spirit of Methodism's founder, John Wesley, who embraced both traditional worship forms and sensitivity to the many surprising ways God is speaking to us. We look forward to worship as a sacred time of giving thanks for the continual creative power of God, resting in the abiding care of the Spirit, and discerning the voice of Christ. We hope to leave worship renewed and rejoicing.
