What kind of church is St. Luke Union?

St. Luke Union Church is first and foremost a church devoted to worshiping God, following Jesus and being led by the Holy Spirit.

We are a faithful community of worshipers, intentionally created and called by God and guided by the Holy Spirit, focused on developing and enhancing our personal relationship with God. Members and guests nurture and support one another, our Bloomington/Normal community, and others we encounter in this global, multicultural world we share. We seek to better understand God’s will and to demonstrate God’s unconditional love of all creation as a faithful and joyous congregation.

Our denominational affiliation is Presbyterian Church (USA) and United Church of Christ. All are welcome to worship and be part of community!

Where is St. Luke Union Church located?

We are located at 2101 E. Washington St. in Bloomington, Illinois, just a few blocks west of Veteran’s Parkway.

What does Sunday morning worship look like?

Sunday morning worship is a traditional Protestant experience. A normal Sunday service contains:

  • Call to Worship
  • Hymns
  • Confession
  • Children’s Message
  • Scripture Reading
  • Anthem
  • Message/Sermon
  • Offering
  • Prayers of the People
  • Benediction

Communion, a sacrament in the PC(USA) and UCC, is celebrated the first Sunday of every month.

What should I wear to a worship service?

Adults typically wear casual or business casual clothes, while children often are dressed in something comfortable. Congregational members come from a variety of diverse backgrounds, so we encourage you to be yourself.

What if I still have questions?

If you have additional questions, please contact us to speak with a friendly St. Luke Union Church staff or elder. We look forward to meeting you!
