| WITNESS MINISTRY |
 At St. Luke we define worship as being ushered into God’s presence. Worship is where we connect with God and is a time when we interact with each other on a deeper spiritual level. We worship God, not just with our intellect, not just through our emotions, not just through our experiences, but we worship God with everything that we have!!! Praise is the vehicle that takes us to our destination—worship. Praise is all that we do to get our minds, hearts and spirits in tuned with God’s Holy Spirit; Praise is singing and liturgy; and praise is adoration and glorification of God. It is an important and necessary ingredient that must be in place for true worship to take place. Each of the following ministries play an intricate part in our celebration of praise and worship.
