Lay Chairperson

Lay Chairpersom, Steve Hansen.

Name: Steve Hansen
Job: Lay Chairperson
Email: shansen@stlukeorthodox.com

Father Andrew and I joined St Luke around the same time approximately 13 years ago. Since the very beginning, he has encouraged all parish members to get involved in the life of the Church by donating their time, talents, and pledges. Recently, I was reading some of the forwards in the new Orthodox Study Bible and came across the following statement: “It should also be mentioned that it was out of the ministry and life of the apostles that the people of God, the laity, were established in the Church. Far from being a herd of observers, the laity are vital in the effectiveness of the Church. They are the recipients and active users of the gifts and grace of the Spirit. Each of the laity has a role in the life and function of the Church. Each is to supply something to the whole.” So for me, serving on the Parish Council is just a way to donate my time and talent to Christ’s Church.
