Property use

Property Use & Agreement Form

St. Luke’s Lutheran Church’s (congregation) primary purpose is to carry on the

mission and ministry of the congregation. It has a desire to serve as an outreach to

the community and has a number of longstanding relationships with community

organizations for ongoing use. The congregation is happy to have your organization

share our facilities. So that all church members and outside groups can enjoy our

facility, we ask that you follow this guide and sign and return the Property Use

Agreement and Release Form. A copy of the approved form will be returned to you.

These forms are only to be used for occasional use such as a once only use or for a

few hours one day each week or month.

Building use activities fall under the jurisdiction of the Property Ministry Team.

Requests for building use are managed through the church office or Facility

coordinator. No commitment for building use is finalized until the Use Agreement has

been approved and executed through the Church Office. Local organizations and

individuals for one -time or short-term usage also may use church building. When

possible we will attempt to make our facility available for such groups. Our first

priority is to congregation programs and membership needs. Priority is then given to

nonprofit groups that are supported by church and finally to other nonprofit

organizations.

Approval for the use of the grounds and/or facilities of congregation does not

constitute or imply endorsement of a group, their mission, or their positions. Groups

approved to use congregation facilities are not to advertise the event in such a way

as to imply endorsement by the congregation. No activities or advocacy may take

place within the congregation, its buildings or grounds that conflict with the practices

of this congregation and the ELCA.

Included in this guide are the following:

  • Steps to Facility Use Scheduling
  • Rules and Regulations
