Description

Scan of the first St. Luke's church bulletin in a bound collection in the church archives. This edition of "Svetlo" (translation "The Light")was distributed at the worship service of January 19, 1941. It is titled as Vol. I.- No.1-3 and was a single page, printed on colored "construction paper." Rev. Stephen M. Tuhy, with no secretarial assistance at that time, authored, typed and mimeographed the bulletins himself. Because the congregation (with the exception of a few young "anglo" spouses) still spoke Slovak in their homes and the worship services were still held only in that language, the bulletins of that time were printed in Slovak, as well. Pastor Tuhy may have added the the many diacritical marks used in the Slovak language with pen and ink after the initial typing of the text. A section entitled, "Kalenderium," listed several events of interest to the members. These included a worship service the pastor would hold for a mission congregation in Masaryktown, Slovak School and catechism classes, Sunday School and the new English worship service which would be held at 7pm on January 26. It was noted that there was a cost of $1.35 each for copies of the English language hymnal to be used in these services.
