Who we are

Thank you for visiting us and for getting this far.

My name is Grace and I am the new Vicar (since February 2014) for St Luke's Leagrave.

My husband and I are new to Luton, but are looking forward to making new friends and getting to know this town. We have already been warmly welcomed.

You may be thinking Why Luton and Why be a vicar?

At the heart of these questions are 'Why are you a Christian?',' Why do you bother with Christian Spirituality?' My answers are in these words which Jesus of Nazareth said: I came that they may have life and have it abundantly' (John 10:10).

There was a time in my life when I ignored God, thought I could do better on my own, have more fun, be free to be who I really wanted to be. But the reverse happened. I grew dissatisfied with the shallow monotony of what Iw as supposed to find pleasure in. Since orientating my life around Jesus Christ my life has gone from dull grey to technicolour. I've not been immune to the hardships of life, but following Jesus has physically taken me to new places, has emotionally and spiritually shown me who I am, who I was created to be, has given me depth of meaning, freedom from past mistakes, new life for today and hope for the future.

It is this promise of abundant life that I hope to share with all I meet and I hope that this will become a hallmark of St Luke's Leagrave. A place of abundant life.

Rev Grace Sentamu Baverstock

St Luke's Church Historical Photos

The power of Christian prayer My hidden sins
Here they are, Lord Jesus, my hidden sins. I bring them out of the secret chamber of my heart. I take them out of the darkness and expose them to Your light. Lord, You have promised You will execute Your word upon the earth, thoroughly and quickly. Oh God, thoroughly cleanse my heart; purify me quickly!
