SUMMARY:Global Perspectives Book Club: The Lion Women of Tehran
DESCRIPTION:Book: The Lion Women of TehranAuthor: Marjan KamaliGenre: Historical/literary fiction\nDescription (from Good Neighbor Bookstore webpage):\n\nNEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER\nFrom nationally bestselling author Marjan Kamali\, this perfect book club read is “evocative…and a powerful portrait of friendship\, feminism\, and political activism” (People) set against three transformative decades in Tehran\, Iran. In 1950s Tehran\, seven-year-old Ellie lives in grand comfort until the untimely death of her father\, forcing Ellie and her mother to move to a tiny home downtown. Lonely and bearing the brunt of her mother’s endless grievances\, Ellie dreams for a friend to alleviate her isolation. Luckily\, on the first day of school\, she meets Homa\, a kind girl with a brave and irrepressible spirit. Together\, the two girls play games\, learn to cook in the stone kitchen of Homa’s warm home\, wander through the colorful stalls of the Grand Bazaar\, and share their ambitions of becoming “lion women.” But their happiness is disrupted when Ellie and her mother are afforded the opportunity to return to their previous bourgeois life. Now a popular student at the best girls’ high school in Iran\, Ellie’s memories of Homa begin to fade. Years later\, however\, her sudden reappearance in Ellie’s privileged world alters the course of both of their lives.\nTogether\, the two young women come of age and pursue their own goals for meaningful futures. But as the political turmoil in Iran builds to a breaking point\, one earth-shattering betrayal will have enormous consequences. “Reminiscent of The Kite Runner and My Brilliant Friend\, The Lion Women of Tehran is a mesmerizing tale” (BookPage) of love and courage\, and a sweeping exploration of how profoundly we are shaped by those we meet when we are young.\n\nLink to RSVP via Microsoft Forms:https://forms.cloud.microsoft/r/MA925MmrSG\nWe will be meeting on Tuesday\, October 13\, 2026 at 6pm in the Fenn Library at St. Luke’s Church (in the undercroft\, behind the Johnson Stage).

SUMMARY:Rachel's Tears: Liturgy for Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day
DESCRIPTION:In St. Luke’s chapel at 5 pm on October 14th (the eve of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day)\, the church is offering a Service of Remembrance for all those who have experienced the many kinds of grief and loss that may be associated with pregnancy. The experience of this kind of loss is deeply personal. People with all kinds of grief associated with the loss of a pregnancy or infant are welcome. Sometimes\, when it comes to reproductive health\, it can seem like your grief doesn’t “count\,” or they carry shame or blame that their loss is “their fault.” Here at St. Luke’s\, there is no litmus test or judgment: If you are carrying with you the burden of a lost (or ended) pregnancy\, come set that burden down in community – and in the hands of the One who has made and loves us all.

SUMMARY:Letter From a Birmingham Jail: "If Martin Were Here Today"
DESCRIPTION:St. Luke’s will host a special theatrical performance of Letter from a Birmingham Jail: What if Martin Were Still Alive on Thursday\, October 22\, at 7 p.m. The performance is free and open to the public\, with doors opening at 6:30 p.m. for light refreshments. Presented by the Buffalo-based Typography of Women\, the production reimagines the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s historic 1963 “Letter from Birmingham Jail” through a conversation with a younger\, 21st-century version of King confronting the challenges of our own time. Music\, spirituals\, dramatic readings\, and commentary weave together King’s words from more than sixty years ago with questions of racial justice and the work that remains before us today. The performance is sponsored by the WNY & NWPA Commission to Dismantle Racism and Discrimination and St. Luke’s Commission to Dismantle Racism and Discrimination. And is being offered the day before the Diocesan Convention begins. Please join with Episcopalians from around the diocese and community members for this compelling evening of theater\, music\, history\, and reflection—and invite friends and neighbors from throughout the community to come as well.

SUMMARY:Constantine's Cross: A Service of Lament
DESCRIPTION:Christian tradition places Constantine’s vision of a cross in the sky on October 27\, 312\, the eve of the Battle of the Milvian Bridge. After his victory\, Constantine and his fellow emperor Licinius affirmed religious freedom for Christians in 313. Christianity eventually became the empire’s official religion\, beginning a long and complicated relationship between the Church and political power. That history includes extraordinary gifts: hospitals and universities\, expanded education\, and a vision of dignity for every human being. It also carries profound wounds: the Crusades\, pogroms against Jewish communities\, colonialism\, the Doctrine of Discovery\, and the defense of slavery. Too often\, the cross has been used to justify domination\, and the Church has blessed the very oppression it was called to resist. On October 27 at 5pm\, St. Luke’s will host “Constantine’s Cross: A Service of Lament” in the chapel. Through Psalms\, silence\, and prayers\, this brief service will offer space to grieve these harms\, confess the ways Christianity has served state power and oppression\, and renew our commitment to the way of Jesus: love\, humility\, justice\, and peace.
