Hospitality Center Community Vaccinations

Hospitality Center - Who We Are

Hospitality Center is an outreach ministry of the Episcopal Diocese of Milwaukee, hosted inside St. Luke's. The Hospitality Center is a community resource center and meal site that provides service to the homeless and near homeless people of Racine. The Hospitality Center is open to all people without regard to social status, religious, or financial standing. 

No matter what your reason for stopping in, one thing is guaranteed: you won't leave the same as when you entered. We believe that providing hospitality to those who have nowhere to go may lead us to an encounter with Christ, and that by opening our church doors, we increase the chance to allow true holiness to find us.

We invite you to drop in and visit!

St. Luke's houses and provides financial support to this highly successful ministry which offers training for life and work through development of attitudes, habits, and skills that reflect human dignity. 

For those reentering society after incarceration, RVM offers:

  • vocational counseling
  • job-readiness training
  • life-skills education
  • job retention support
  • job-seeker support groups
  • referral services

RVM credits their success to believing that each client who walks through their doors is an opportunity to welcome and serve Christ.

St. Luke's Saturday Sack Lunches

Saturday Sack Lunches

Once every three months, St. Luke's, in conjunction with First Methodist Church, produces more than 70 sack lunches of sandwiches, fruit juice, chips, and cookies to deliver to those who need them. St. Luke’s is one of a number of churches in Racine that participate in the Sack Lunch Program. 

Typically, St. Luke’s is responsible for five to six Saturdays per year. On our designated Saturday, volunteers meet at First United Methodist Church, 745 Main Street, at 10:30AM to make the lunches, after which they are distributed at noon to the public. The Program is organized by St. Monica’s Guild and volunteers provide the ingredients needed.  Anyone in the church who is interested in helping is welcome to join us. 

The Haiti Project

St. Luke's supports the church, school, clinic, and agricultural program of St. Marc's Church and school in Jeannette, Haiti through the Diocese of Milwaukee Haiti Project. Parishioners may also sponsor students at St. Marc's School separately. Individuals are encouraged to participate in mission trips and work with our partners in Jeannette through opportunities scheduled by the Haiti Project coordinator.
