St Luke in the City Team, Liverpool
St Luke in the City is the Church of England parish covering much of the residential part of Liverpool city centre. We are served by three church buildings: St Michael in the City in L1 (in Chinatown), St Bride's in L8 (in the Georgian Quarter) and St Dunstan's in L7 (in Edge Hill, opposite Archbishop Blanch School).
We are an inclusive parish, welcoming and affirming all. Open Table Liverpool, the first of the nationwide network of Open Table congregations of LGBTQIA+ people and their friends, families and supporters, meets twice a month at St Bride's.
There is an anchor social justice project running at each of our three locations:
The Roots in the City community garden, with gardening for wellbeing, education, training and other projects, is run in the grounds of St Michael in the City with our partner charity Faiths4Change.
St Bride's was a founder partner of the social justice charity Micah Liverpool, which now runs a foodbank from St Bride's every Thursday from 10-1pm.
Lauda, connecting the local Roma speaking community around St Dunstan's with other local families and with church, runs language and literacy classes during the Micah community market at St Dunstan's every Wednesday morning, and also an after school Bible club in collaboration with St Hugh's RC school.
