A Pathway Toward Membership

A Pathway Towards Membership

If you are not a member of The Order of Saint Luke, Come and see.

The Order of Saint Luke welcomes you at whatever your stage of interest and readiness. To support you, we invite you to discover our community, and our life and mission. The linked resources below are stepping stones for your journey. The pathway is not rigid or regimented; there is flexibility. Once you begin you’ll be able to talk with members of the Order who can listen and guide you. If you have a sense of where you are on the pathway, start there, and feel free to move about as the Spirit leads you.

When you are ready to begin the process in a more formal way, we invite you to contact the Novitiate Registrar to request admission to the Time of Inquiry.
