  • Local: St. Luke's was originally founded as a mission and later became a parish. A mission has a vicar as their clergy person and a parish has a rector. A vicar serves a congregation at the request of a bishop, while a rector has automatic tenure and is called by the congregation. St. Luke's is a parish, or as we prefer to say, "Parish Family."
  • Regional: St. Luke's is an integral part of a diocese, which can be traced back to the Greco-Roman polis or city-state structure of government. There are two dioceses in the state of Kansas; The Diocese of Kansas and Western Kansas. The diocesan offices are in Topeka and Salina. St. Luke's is a parish in the Diocese of Kansas.
  • Global: The Episcopal Church (TEC) is part of an American denomination that has churches in 21 countries and is an integral part of the Anglican Communion, which has 80 million, second only to Roman Catholicism at 1 Billion. 
  • Universal: A middle way between Roman Catholicism and Protestantism, we find our balance and center by the Grace we accept in Word and Sacrament. As a sacred tool, our Book of Common Prayer is the centerpiece of our worship and life together as Episcopalians.

The Episcopal Shield

This symbol, which you will see at every Episcopal Church, is the official "logo" of The Episcopal Church (TEC), and represents our history.  

It is red, white and blue...the colors of both the USA and UK. 

The red Cross of St. George on a white field is symbolic of the Church of England. 

The blue field in the upper left corner is the Episcopal Church of the   U.S.A.  It features a Cross of St. Andrew, in re-cognition of the fact that the first American bishop was consecrated in Scotland. 

This cross is made up of nine cross-lets or mini crosses, which represent the nine dioceses that met in Philadelphia in 1789 to form the Protestant Episcopal Church of the U.S.A. But, the cross-lets are not visible in this crayola representation above.
