St. Luke the Evangelist Episcopal Church, Houston, is the oldest African American Episcopal Church in the city of Houston. St. Luke’s was originally established in 1920 as St. Clement’s Episcopal Church through the organizational efforts of Dr. R.O. Roett and others.
St. John’s, Sealy; St. Philip’s, Hearne; and St. Peter’s, Brenham, are all small parishes with huge hearts. Prior and during the pandemic, these three congregations have fused their efforts with local organizations to help feed those who are facing hardships. These endeavors have only gained momentum during these uncertain times.
