By God's grace,
St. Luke's congregation will have the privilege of
hosting the 16th season of its annual Concert Series. It is
estimated that over 70,000 people have attended performances during
the past decade.
You may be surprised to learn that last year alone, the average
attendance at the concerts was just under 1000 per concert.
Watch a clip from WMFE's "The Arts Connection" April 17, 2008 program featuring
the St. Luke's Concert Series!

A Great Season!
Through the support of St. Luke’s members and other friends of the Series, we
have not only been able to present the finest musical ensembles in Central Florida,
but something that sets the Series apart from virtually every other such endeavor
in our community: FREE ADMISSION!
Yes, every family in our community is invited to experience these great performances
without admission tickets or “free will offerings,” primarily because of the PERSONAL
GIFTS of the generous people who make this possible through their special
contributions.
The Word Is Out!
We have been blessed indeed, not only with exceedingly large audiences, but
with quality programming and growing financial support from individual
donors and special grants.
Emails and notes from people in our community, expressing their gratitude
for St. Luke's generous gift in producing this Concert Series, come in after
every performance. We have a list of performers eager to be included in
our Series in future years, and several requests for advice on how to
begin a similar effort in other places.
