Luke was born to Christian parents in 1982. Much of his childhood and teen years were spent in Alaska, where his parents served as missionaries. Following ministry in Alaska, Luke’s father pastored in the Midwest until his death. By God’s grace, Luke came to Christ at the age of seventeen, and was baptized in the weeks following. Shortly thereafter, he believed God would have him prepare for vocational ministry, and enrolled in bible college upon graduating high school. While in college, Luke met his wife Amber. They were married in June of 2002. In December of 2005, Luke and family moved to Alaska where they served in a mission work in a remote village on the Yukon River for six years. They returned to their home church in Northwestern Illinois in November of 2011. There, Luke served as one of the pastors until the Spring of 2017. The Mace family moved to Chambersburg early in 2018. They began attending and soon became members of Grace Baptist Church. Luke was called by the church as an elder in May of 2021. He is currently pursuing a Master’s degree through Covenant Baptist Theological Seminary. Luke and Amber have five children — Logan, Keegan, Zack. Kate, and Toby.
