Rev. Billy Kurtz
Welcome to our website.
Luminary would like to extend a warm invitation for everyone to come and worship with us in the Ten Mile community South of Kingston.
Luminary is deeply rooted in the history of the Christian faith and family life. This is demonstrated by our clear purpose to share Christ in the world and develop every person, regardless of age, into a productive disciple. Our programs continue to expand as we connect with children and seniors alike.
Worship is very important to us here at Luminary. We believe there are many ways to praise God. Our 8:00 AM service reflects more of a Southern Gospel worship style while our worship service at 9:30 AM is a high-tech contemporaryservice. Our 11:00 AM service features a forty member choir and is more traditional in its format.
We are a gifts oriented congregation and believe that everyone has a spiritual gift. We are committed to helping everyone at Luminary identify their gift and then find their place to share it. The quality of a person's spiritual life depends upon not being a religious consumer, but being a gift oriented servant. Here at Lumunary, we believe that spiritual growth depends upon an accountable community. Through our small group reflection and Bible studies we not only increase our knowledge of Gods' word, but personal transformation is developed and encouraged. It is important that we help each other in this journey of faith as we become the person God created us to be. Will you join us on this journey as we grow in our ability to make a difference in our world for the love of Jesus Christ.
