About Us
The Church of St. Luke in the Fields is a lively, inclusive parish located in the heart of New York City's Greenwich Village. We reflect the variety of peoples in our world: different genders, sexual orientations, all forms of families, all abilities and special needs, in every socio-economic grouping, and from many cultures – all one in the body of Christ. St. Luke's is an Episcopal Church, part of the world-wide Anglican Communion, and grounded in the rich Anglo-Catholic liturgical and musical tradition. We believe that as members of the Body of Christ, we are called to ministries of worship, formation, hospitality and witness.

John shared their experience Feb 2012
I have been a parishioner for nearly 20 years. My partner and were married here. Beautiful Anglo-Catholic liturgy and astounding choir who sings music from Gregorian Chant, through the Renaissance to newly comissioned works. Truly my chosen family.
Janet shared their experience Feb 2012
St. Luke's has been my parish for more than 25 years: a house of prayer, a spiritual home, and a loving support community that's gotten me through rough times.
Jared shared their experience Feb 2012
St. Luke's gives me the perfect blend of a rich liturgical tradition, including all the "smells and bells" I could ever want, with a refreshingly down-to-earth and welcoming congregation. At difficult times in my own life, I've been humbled by the number of fellow parishioners -- even people I didn't know well -- who came up to me to let me know they were praying for me or to ask how they could help. Plus, with so many different opportunities to participate in outreach ministries and serve the parish, I've been able to give back to the community at my own speed and in ways that make best use of my abilities. A great clergy team covers all the bases: inspiring preaching, prudent stewardship, and compassionate pastoral care.
