St. Luke's Episcopal Church is a parish of the Episcopal Church located in Hot Springs, Arkansas, in the Diocese of Arkansas. The congregation was established in 1866; its present pastor is C. B. Baker.

It is noted for its historic parish church located at Spring and Cottage Streets, completed in 1926 to replace the previous structure, which had been destroyed by a tornado.[2] The church is a stone Gothic Revival building designed by Thompson and Harding. Its gable-roofed nave is dominated by a massive buttressed stone tower at the front, topped by a tall parapet. A stained glass window is set in the tower, just above the projecting gable-roofed entrance vestibule.[3] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
