The Church of St. Luke

About this church

The Church of St. Luke in El Cajon schedules its Saturday Vigil for 5 p.m., with Sunday Mass at 9 and 11:30 a.m. Weekday Mass is Wednesday through Friday at 7:30 a.m. Reconciliation begins Saturday at 3:30 p.m. Eucharistic Adoration follows Friday morning Mass: on the first Friday it continues from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. with closing Benediction, while other Fridays conclude at noon. Children's Liturgy is offered during both Sunday Masses, giving families equivalent morning options rather than restricting the program to one hour.

The parish describes itself as a joyful, welcoming, caring, and active Roman Catholic family growing in love for God and one another. Catechesis of the Good Shepherd serves children ages three through twelve through Montessori principles, Scripture, liturgy, and developmental stages; session days and hours vary by formation level. First Communion and Reconciliation preparation ordinarily spans at least two years and treats parents or guardians as primary catechists, with regular Sunday Mass participation required. Community outreach invites volunteers into mercy, advocacy, and practical service. A first-time visitor can choose either Sunday Mass or the Saturday Vigil. Families should distinguish Children's Liturgy during Mass from registered weekday formation, while anyone planning Friday Adoration should check whether it is the first Friday of the month.
