Beautiful… This message made a huge impact on my faith. Thank you Dr Pace.
Truly the word of God is quick & powerful, sharper than any 2 edged swords piecing to the soul and spirit. Glad to be a member of St. Lukes. God bless us all & continue to keep us safe. Amen
HI David. Here’s an idea from our IT department. Download LiveStream onto your smart TV. Search “St. Luke’s UMC Houston” and watch from there. Let me know. God bless you.
Wonderful service! I had a rocky start; took me about 5 or 6 times to finally get it streamed and got in just as Sid started singing. It didn’t cut out at all. I am so grateful to all the staff who brings this to us and, of course, for Dr. Pace, always there with the words that take me from one Sunday til the next. Miss all of you and the members. Thanks to Anona for the suggestions when I was having difficulty getting on. Love & prayers,
Thanks so much for worshiping with us today, Cynthia. The hymn, “When We Face an Unknown Future” was written by Carolyn Gillette, a Presbyterian minister in Philadelphia. I loved it too. What powerful lyrics.

Thank you St. Lukes for getting the service on TV in Houston in addition to livestream. My elderly parents 87 and 91 just can’t figure out how to livestream so they were thrilled that this was happening. Bless all!
Amen to the precious children! Wave your branch, Peggy. Hosanna in the highest!

Thanks for the precious children today. What joy to share them with us. The music with Grace’s beautiful voice and Keith with his wonderful song, and Tom’s sermon. We are truly blessed to be able to worship in this way during this situation. Thanks for all those who make this possible for us to stay connected to our church and our God.
Thank you, Onalee. What a blessing to unite our hearts in worship today.Hosanna in the highest!

Suzi, thank you and all the communications staff for all your work in putting the Sunday morning live streaming together. Miss seeing everyone but enjoying the live streaming.
Hi Lee! We miss you too. I’ll let the Media Team know how much you are enjoying the services. They are doing such a great job. And-how about our pastors and musicians? Aren’t we blessed?!

It’s lovely to hear Grace & Jim. We choir members used to talk about how difficult it was to walk down the aisle while singing, waving a palm, holding our folder & looking over our bifocals trying not to trip…what I wouldn’t give to be doing just that right now. Thank you for the little children waving the palms for us!
Oh Kathy! We agree. Thank you for all that the choirs bring to worship. How we miss you. I bet that we will all have renewed appreciation for in-person worship when we return. Blessings.

Everything about this service has been so moving, but the performance and song during offering was just so very powerful. Thank you to everyone involved. Hosanna in the highest!
Thanks, Patrick. We are so appreciative of Tom and all of pastors and crew for these online services. We will be sure to tell him. Blessings.

This was an amazing service! It may be my favorite Palm Sunday celebration ever. Thank you to all of you who made it possible. It truly is amazing the feeling of community that is created in the midst of separateness. This church is such an incredible blessing. Thank you.
Hi Cynthia. We are so blessed by today’s worship. Thank you for affirming the crew and pastors. They work so diligently and prayerfully to bring church home. Hosanna in the highest, Lord!

The songs were glorious… Hosanna 🌿🌿🌿
With the great amount of programming y’all have provided for us, it is understandable that there might be a bump in the road somewhere down the line. Waiting hopefully and appreciatively,,

Dear Rob,
That virtual choir offering is magnificent. The way each individual voice was balanced and blended gave a specific relevancy to what we are a going through now. I would love the ability to share it as a stand alone. It was a new experience. I think it would go viral.
God bless,
Cindy Gabriel
Very comforting to see my friends singing and playing. How did Credo do that? Thanks to all of you in front and behind the camera/computers that brought this to my living room. God spoke to me and my family today.
I can’t imagine how hard that was, but they created a masterpiece! Thanks, Jim!

For years, my home church has been Munholland United Methodist in Metairie, Louisiana, but I started attending St.Luke’s when I would visit my sister, who was transferred to Houston after Hurricane Katrina, and I fell in love with the church. Now, I live in the Frenc countryside, and I love being able to once again attend the service via live streaming. Thanks you.
Bonjour, Paula. What a delight to have you with St. Luke’s today. Blessings.

I am grateful for this 8:30 am streamed service: Dr. Pace’s great serman, Rev. Michelle’s wonderful prayer, Rev. .Thomas’s scripture readings, Monica Griffin & Jim Roman’s music, etc..
Thank you for sharing. It is nice to know others are doing the same. My husband and I lived in Houston for 4 years while starting a business. We worshipped at St. Lukes for about 3 years. Now that we are back home, I continue to listen to the sermons online and since COVID-19, we can livestream as well. We also live stream our own church and one of our son’s churches as well. Praise God for His blessings during this challenging time. I’ll look forward to meeting you in heaven.

Each week this church surpasses itself. I was amazed at the seamless transitions between homes! Thank you one and all.
