The parish of St Luke existed as a separate entity until 1974, when it was merged into the newly constituted Parish of the Resurrection. Six years earlier it had been enlarged substantially, both in area and in the number of parishioners served, when the nearby St Matthew's Church closed down and its congregation was transferred to St Luke's. On 1 February 2009 the Team Ministry and Parish of the Resurrection was dissolved and St Luke's once again became a separate parish in its own right. The last team vicar, Fr Christopher Woodman, became the first incumbent of the new parish. Since 2010, the Incumbent has been a Deacon-in-Charge, the Reverend Julie Newson.
