Beyond The Horizon

We envision St. Luke’s as an explosive force of God’s radical, just, and inclusive love, reaching hundreds of thousands of people in Indianapolis and beyond who have given up on church or the possibility of a God who cares about them.

See Updated Vision Guide

Multi-Site

A strategic plan in action to replicate our culture to other areas in Indianapolis and beyond; in physical and online presence.

Inclusive Expansion

Give attention to the ways our worship services connect with the diversity of ages, races, and spiritual needs of our community.

City Impact

Bring awareness, build relationships, and provide wrap-around services to ensure people have access to food, housing, education, and care.

Equip Disciples

Helping people connect their personal relationship with God to a call to impact and transform the world for Christ.

Multi-Site

Extending our reach beyond our current geographic location. We believe this will look like a number of things:

Digital Campus that better connects the hundreds of people who join us online and do not have ability to connect with us in person
Micro-sites of St. Luke’s: gatherings of people in communities where folks are joining us online and where we might connect them in person for fellowship, study opportunities, and missional engagement.
Launching St. Luke's - Midtown (a new physical campus) in December

If you'd like more information about getting involved in multi-sites, contact Dr. Rev. Jevon Caldwell-Gross.

Inclusive Expansion

How our worship and hospitality welcomes the diverse populations around us and what unintended obstacles we face. Our goals are:

Increase our worship attendance by 10% by June 2024
Conduct a series of listening sessions
Help people feel safe, included, and inspired so that we can reach those who have given up on church or the possibility of a God who loves them

Equipping Disciples

Moving people beyond just attending church activities to experiencing genuine life-transformation by living out their faith as fully engaged, followers of Jesus Christ. To do this we will:

Offer clear pathways for spiritual growth, faith-sharing, serving with our gifts, and developing leaders
Create a connection team
Create a team to identify, train and equip new leaders in the church who represent the diversity of our congregation and the community around us.
5-3-1 Challenge Results: 2,000+ prayed for | 1,800+ invited | 1,000+ came to St. Luke's for the first time in March/April
