“Alegria pra Jesus” echoes in my mind. This celebration connects directly to our next stop Paróquia de São Lucas.
Paróquia de São Lucas is more than just a church. It’s a vibrant community hub. It’s a place where faith meets joy.
Established on December 16 2007 Paróquia de São Lucas is relatively young. Yet it has quickly become a significant part of the community in Embu das Artes. This is not the São Lucas in the eastern part of the city of São Paulo. This Paróquia de São Lucas is located on Estrada de Itapecerica a Campo Limpo 202.
The church celebrates its patron saints with two annual festivals. August 15 is dedicated to Nossa Senhora das Vitórias. October 18 honors São Lucas. These dates are important for the parish.
The parish office is open from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM Tuesday through Saturday. You can reach them at (11) 4385-1266 for information.
Masses are held on Sundays at 9:00 AM 11:00 AM and 7:00 PM. There is also a mass on Thursdays at 8:00 PM. Confessions are heard on Thursdays from 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament takes place on Fridays at 6:00 PM.
The Comunidade São Lucas organizes events like “Alegria pra Jesus”. This event includes music faith and lots of animation. It starts at the Igreja São Lucas in Nova Aurora. A trio elétrico leads the faithful through the streets. Bands like Deus é 10 Mater Groove and Novum Christus perform. This event is for all ages. It offers a fun faith-filled environment.
Paulo Henrique coordinator of Comunidade São Lucas says the event aims to show that the church is a place for joy. It is a place where joy doesn’t need to be from the “world”.
The church also provides pastoral services. Contact the parish secretary for more details. The goal is always to strengthen faith.
Paróquia de São Lucas stands as a beacon of faith. It is a place of community. It’s a source of joy for many in Embu das Artes. Its modern creation and vibrant activities make it a unique and welcoming space. Remember its story of faith music and community as we continue our tour.
