Welcome to St. Luke
All people are welcome for all of us need God’s favor through Jesus.
We gather to give God praise, glory, and honor for all God does for us in Jesus. Many voices and talents are included in our worship.
We train in Godliness by studying God’s Word during Sunday School and in small groups.
We open ourselves to Jesus so we can be his feet and hands Proclaiming God’s Favor to our neighbors.
Looking forward to seeing you in person or join us online Sunday for worship at 11 am and Sunday School at 10 am. We have fellowship before both.
Pastor Phillip A Coggins

Our story
Founded in 1904 to serve the Olympia Mill Village, Columbia, the Midlands of SC, and beyond, St. Luke Lutheran Church has a long history of partnering with the community, serving our neighbors, and sharing the love of Christ with others. The community and our congregation have gone through many changes since then, but God still calls us to love and serve our neighbors. St. Luke’s mission and vision come from…
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set free those who are oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” Luke 4:18 – 19
Here you will find a church community where people truly care about each other. Some of our members have deep roots in the congregation and community, but newcomers find a warm welcome here, as well.
What we believe
St. Luke Lutheran Church is a part of the South Carolina Synod and Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
We are what God has made us – people whom God has created by grace to live in union with Jesus Christ and has prepared to live faithful, fruitful lives by the power of the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 2:8-10). In Jesus Christ, God has reconciled us to God and to each other. As we gather around word and sacraments (Holy Communion & Baptism), this life in Christ is what defines, shapes and guides us as a community of faith, the church.
By God’s grace we can and do live confidently and generously in this community of faith and in service of others, amid the mysteries and paradoxes of this life in Christ – including our human limitations and failings, and the ambiguities, uncertainties and suffering that we experience. (elca.org)
