We are a welcoming and diverse group of people, between the ages of 20 and 40. We hang out, meet up for brunch, throw parties, and support each other no matter what. We typically meet every other Tuesday evening for Pub Theology Club at a local pub.
Pub Theology Club is a community of respect where young adults can explore questions about humanity and the divine without fear and without judgment.
Sometimes we listen to a podcast or read a book and discuss it. Sometimes we ask questions about life and faith. Sometimes we just share what’s on our minds and love and support one another on our unique journeys.
Want to join us? Contact Will Lee for details or just show up at one of our events and introduce yourself!
We accept all and hold strongly to only one idea: that everyone walks their own path in their faith, and ours is not to dictate that path but to help each other along our own.

Rabbi Panitz will also be our guest preacher on Sunday, February 8th.

As a slight shift for the February meeting, in honor of Black History month, the Queer Theology Discussion Group is going to let James Baldwin’s short story, “Sonny’s Blues” guide them in an exploration of faith, both through the Queer lens but also through the queering lens of black liberation theology. Please read the story a couple of times through, if you’re planning to attend. There are also many good readings of the story on YouTube, including this one.
We’re a parishioner-led group devoted to exploring queer theology more deeply, and how members of the LGBTQIA+ community are not just accepted in the Episcopal Church but embraced in God’s love. We ask ourselves: How does the queer perspective enrich queer theology and our community? All LGBTQIA+ people and allies are welcome. For more information contact Anders “AJ” Nolan.
Join us in the Parlor at Christ & St. Luke’s at noon following the 10:15 service on the second Sunday of each month.

Lenten Adult Formation: Make No Peace With Oppression
2026-02-22 09:15 - 10:00 | Christ & St. Luke’s, 560 West Olney Road, Norfolk, VA, 23507, United States
On the five Sundays of Lent (February 22, March 1, March 8, March 15, March 22 from 9:15 a.m. — 10:00 a.m.
Throughout the Bible, “oppression” is one of the main evils against which people of faith must contend. They must resist oppressing others and they must work to liberate
those who are oppressed. But what exactly is oppression? Who gets to define it? What does it really feel like to be oppressed? What does it do to people? How do we help?
Join us this Lent as we use our Sunday Adult Formation time to explore this topic. We will hear from clergy and special guests speaking about their own understanding and
experience of oppression and broaden our engagement with this essential aspect of our faith.
