Interested in what St. Luke's has to offer children & their families? Click here for more information:
SLY, Jr. (St. Luke's Youth Junior) is St. Luke's United Methodist Church's 5th & 6th grade service & fun club. We meet throughout the school year - usually twice a month. See our calendar below. Responsible adult must come into the building and sign child(ren) IN and OUT. Usually after check in, we then take part in the Youth SLY Dinner on Sunday evenings at 5:30pm ($2 donation) in the Youth Room then move over to Goliath for an evening of faith development activities, games and fun! We also participate in service projects, lock-ins, outings and we even partner with SLY (7th-12th graders) occasionally. Join us! And bring a friend!
DURING COVID RESTRICTIONS - our time together is limited and we will either meet outside or in rooms with air purifiers. Signing your child in and out will be done with limited contact. Masks and social distancing are required when we meet in person inside. Please do not attend if you are not feeling well. Thank you!
**We need a consent form for each child - they are good for the entire school year:
