Welcome to Alex Holmes: We are delighted to welcome Alex Holmes, our new Team Vicar, who will be officially licensed in a special ceremony at St Luke's Church on Tuesday, May 6 at 7pm. Everyone is invited to join us for this significant occasion. Alex will reside in Buckfastleigh and will focus her initial ministry efforts in Buckfastleigh and Dean Prior. While Gina Radford continues as our Team Rector overseeing our seven churches, Alex's presence in the town will be a tremendous addition to our community.

Sunday Services in May: We invite everyone to our quiet evening service of Compline on May 4 at 6:00pm, and to our regular morning services on subsequent Sundays at 11am. Our services are designed to be welcoming and comforting, regardless of your familiarity with church activities or your faith background.

Free Concert in June: Enjoy the beautiful music of Handel and Mozart at a free concert performed by Richard Lester on Saturday, June 14 at 2:30pm. A retiring collection will be taken to support St Luke's Church funds. More details will be provided next month.

Support from the Foodbank: Our Foodbank and the associated Foodbank café are operational on Friday mornings at St Luke's. We offer not only food assistance but also access to a CAB adviser who has successfully secured significant financial support for many. If you or someone you know could use this help, please don't hesitate to contact us at 01364 644485 at any time; messages can be left on the answerphone.
