Our St. Luke Bible Study has been on hiatus for the last two months as Pastor Mark has been given greater responsibilities in the Eastern Pennsylvania Annual Conference. We would like to have a meeting of our faithful Bible Study participants to discuss the future course of our Bible Study, which may include starting two new Bible Studies led by Rev. Brittany Whyte and Rev. Qadry Harris. We will talk about topics for future Bible Studies, as well as the focus or approach that the new Bible Studies will entail. All are welcome!

Wednesday, May 21- Thursday, May 22 2025 Eastern Pennsylvania Annual Conference
Wildwood, NJ
The annual gathering of clergy, laity, and our Bishop will take place at the New Jersey Shore. St. Luke usually sends 2 or 3 members to the Annual Conference to vote on important pending legislation affecting our churches, to consider reports from Conference agencies and ministries, and to gather with colleagues across our Methodist region. If you are interested in representing St. Luke, please contact Pastor Mark.
Immigration Rapid Response Team
Pastor Mark is building a coalition of clergy and lay people in UM churches serving Eastern Pennsylvania and Greater New Jersey to help train vulnerable churches and communities in a time when our immigration laws and policies are changing rapidly.
The Eastern Pennsylvania Annual Conference and the Greater New Jersey Annual Conference are resourcing the work of the Immigration Rapid Response Team to protect undocumented people in many of our churches who may be at risk of ICE arrest and deportation. Please contact Pastor Mark if you would like to join him and the Immigration Rapid Response Team in educating and protecting our immigrant friends and neighbors.
Get to Know Reverend Brittany Whyte, St. Luke's New Outreach Minister
Over the past two months, I have had the opportunity to meet many of you as I begin my new role as Community Outreach Minister. So far, I have been familiarizing myself with the congregation and had the opportunity to help lead worship with Pastor Mark, Pastor Qadry, and my fellow Wesley Theological Seminary alumna, Pastor LoisAnn. It has been great getting to know all of you. I’m looking forward to the Lenten season, when I will be assisting in joint Lenten services with Ardmore UMC and Havertown UMC.
In addition to that, I am planning a project that will help St. Luke UMC accommodate people with different sensory needs due to ADHD, autism, or sensory processing disorders. This is a multi-phase project that will unfold over the next year. If you have sensory needs during the worship service that you feel are not currently being addressed (light, sound, etc.) and would like to offer some input toward this
project, I would appreciate any suggestions you might have.
I’m also planning for a series of Bible studies. One would be a more traditional study, while the other would be an innovative study that I am designing myself. Stay tuned!
Our New College Minister, Pastor Qadry Harris, and His Impact on Community Engagement and Digital Presence at St. Luke:
Since joining St. Luke UMC as College Minister in mid-January, Pastor Qadry, M. Div., has been actively contributing to both the church and the broader community. He has been shadowing Pastor Mark, offering valuable insight and commentary on race relations policies within the Eastern Pennsylvania Conference of the United Methodist Church. This role has allowed Pastor Qadry to engage deeply with important conversations around justice, equity, and inclusion within the denomination.
In addition to his ministerial duties, Pastor Qadry has taken on the role of church website and social media platforms engineer. By enhancing St. Luke UMC’s online presence, he aims to create more engaging and welcoming digital spaces for our congregation and the wider community. As part of this effort, a Women’s History Month campaign will launch in March, focusing on authentic multiculturalism. All members active on social media are encouraged to support this initiative by liking, commenting, and sharing posts to help strengthen our church’s online profile.
Looking ahead, Pastor Qadry will deliver a sermon at the end of March on “Multiculturalism and the Gospel.” This timely message will coincide with the end of Ramadan, offering a meaningful opportunity to reflect on the intersections of faith, inclusion, and interfaith solidarity.
St. Luke UMC is grateful for Pastor Qadry’s leadership and vision, and we look forward to the continued growth and enrichment he brings to our church community.
