Parish Nurses

Parish Nursing Ministry

The Parish Nursing Ministry of The Church of Saint Luke consists of two Parish Nurses and a mixed team of nurses, other health care providers, educators, and dedicated parishioners. Mindful of the connection between faith and health, the team reaches out to support those who are facing challenging health issues to provide support, comfort, prayer, and practical assistance. Assistance may come in the form of home visits, home communion, transportation assistance to medical appointments, individual office visits, help finding community resources, and bereavement support. Also, the team meets monthly to assess parish health needs and plan health education events. Although nurses are strongly encouraged to join our team, no specific education or background is required aside from a desire to serve God and the parish of Saint Luke.
