ABOUT US

We are the men of St. Luke Catholic Church in Brownsville, Texas — a brotherhood united by faith, formed by the Word, and sent on mission in our daily lives.

As Men of Acts 29, we believe our lives are the next chapter of the story that St. Luke began — written through our choices, our witness, and our commitment to be intentional disciples to all we meet.

We are guided by three simple words — Make, Mold, and Mission. We choose daily to make ourselves like our Lord, be conformed to His Word and Eucharist, and be channels of His Grace and Mercy to everyone we meet.

All men of the parish are welcome. There are no strangers at St. Luke — only brothers we have yet to meet.

MAKE — MOLD — MISSION

1. MAKE
The Lord will continue to Make us into the Men we were born to be, ONLY if we choose HIM.

2. MOLD
We are all challenged to mold ourselves in His WORD and choose daily to be Men of the Eucharist.

3. MISSION
As we grow closer to the Lord, we are called to be on mission and be the face of our Lord to others — with hearts full of HIS Grace and Mercy, seeing our Lord in those we meet.

St. Luke Men's Club Scholarship

The St. Luke Men's Club is proud to offer an annual scholarship to graduating seniors of St. Luke Catholic Church parish who are continuing their education at a college or university.

This scholarship is our way of investing in the next generation — young men and women of faith who carry the values of our parish community into the world. We believe that supporting higher education is one of the most meaningful ways we can serve our parish family and give back to those who represent our future.

Eligible applicants must be graduating high school seniors who are active members of the St. Luke parish community and planning to enroll in an accredited college or university. Details on the application process, deadlines, and award amounts are announced each year through the parish bulletin and our website.

For more information, please contact us directly or speak with a member of our club after any Sunday Mass.

Finding God in All Things — A St. Luke's Men's Club Outreach

At the heart of Jesuit spirituality lies a powerful conviction: "finding God in all things." Born from the mystical experiences of St. Ignatius of Loyola, founder of the Society of Jesus, this calling invites every Catholic to see Christ active in the daily lives of others — especially those in need.

In that spirit, the St. Luke's Men's Club is proud to support the Del Camino Ministry, a Brownsville, Texas–based Jesuit outreach serving migrants and asylum seekers along the U.S.–Mexico border.

A Member's Witness

One of our own, Dennis Cruz, recently traveled with Fr. Brian Strassburger, S.J. of San Felipe Parish in Brownsville to a migrant shelter in Matamoros, Mexico. There, he encountered fellow Catholics waiting — many in quiet desperation — for their future appointments for citizenship consideration.

Dennis assisted in preparing for Mass and was honored to serve as a Eucharistic Minister to those gathered. In his own words:

"During Communion I felt so unworthy to present to them our Lord. I could see the hope in their eyes and know of their quiet desperation. I challenge myself to see Christ in the other — and also strive to be Christ to the other. I know that I did see our Lord in the faces, smiles, and hearts of those I met at the Migrant Shelter."

These are not strangers. They are our fellow Catholics seeking, through legal means, a better life for their families.

Our Commitment

Inspired by Dennis's encounter and the tireless work of Fr. Brian and the Jesuit Priests of the Del Camino Ministry, the St. Luke's Men's Club has made a $500 donation to support this Catholic ministry. We invite our parish family and broader community to join us in continued support of this worthy endeavor.

How You Can Help

If you feel called to look into your heart and contribute to the Del Camino Ministry, you can donate directly through the Jesuits of the Central and Southern Province:
