Prayer Requests
Welcome to St. Peter’s!
If you are looking to grow in your faith, we are thrilled to welcome you! Stop at the welcome center for a “Welcome Home” book with more details about St. Peter’s. We’d love for you to call us your church home.
Please join us for Coffee & Treats - Ice Cream!
You are invited to join us for some refreshments and treats in the commons right after the service. Get to know some fellow worshippers. We serve Caribou Coffee and offer water bottles and juice.
The Church in 2023… our final Acts study
You are invited to spend an hour with us on Sunday mornings after worship paging through the Book of Acts. This is a Pastor led Bible Study that goes deeper into the Bible readings in our worship services and discovering the context of God’s action.
Pick up a treat and fill your cup and come on into the Discipleship Room outside the sanctuary to the right. We wrap up at 11:30am so you can still get to your favorite Sunday morning lunch location.
We have Life Application Bibles on the tables that we use and even provide page numbers for those who have a hard time finding things in the Bible. You are invited today!
The Year Ahead
At St. Peter’s our ministry year begins July 1 to correspond to the school year. You are invited to attend the next Voters’ Assembly where we will hear about and approve the Ministry Plan for 2023-2024 along with the budget to support our ministry in the year ahead. Over these last months we have discovered that God’s not done yet! Come support what He is up to through us. Sunday, June 4, following worship in the sanctuary.
Join Pastor Mark & Joann in Israel
The Disciples had a front row seat to the ministry of Jesus. He taught them. He prepared them. He changed their lives. Is it time to deepen your Biblical faith? On this 10 day tour, we will begin with the calling of the disciples at the Sea of Galilee. We will observe locations where Jesus worked signs and wonders among the people. Then we will visit Jerusalem where Jesus would offer Himself as the full sacrifice for our sin. We will visit the garden where we are reminded of the empty tomb, then looking to the hillside, recall Jesus Ascension where He would commission His disciples. You are invited to join us with your Bible in hand.
Interested in participating but the cost causing you to think it wouldn’t be possible? On of our members has offered to pay up to half of the cost of the trip for a member to attend. Reach out to Pastor Mark if that would make a difference for your participation - or for another person.
View more details about the trip below. You may also pick up a printed copy at the Welcome Center.
Men’s Bible Discussion Group - The Book of Job
The world teaches us to revolve our actions, thoughts, and beliefs around ourselves. “It’s all about you!” we are encouraged to think. In the world’s philosophy, we become the author and hero of our story. But the Bible teaches a different view, one where another hero—the actual Author of life—takes center stage. In the book of Job, God reminds us that we exist not for ourselves but to glorify the God who deserves all worship and praise.
This group is designed for men of all ages to strengthen their faith in God and friendships with each other through learning about the Bible.
Bring a Bible. We use a combination of open verse by verse reading and video message to challenge us as we live out our lives and seek to be Godly men. Fridays 7:30-8:30am in the Discipleship Room at St. Peter’s.
The Chosen Small Group
Have you discovered The Chosen? It is the story of Christ and His Disciples in dramatic style. Witness some of the events and the signs, wonders, and messages of our Lord as seen through the eyes of the disciples. While based on the Biblical accounts, the interaction and dialogue is engaging and powerful. You will certainly be moved.
Led by Tim & Elizabeth Gaudineer, this small group meets on Wednesdays at 10am at St. Peter’s in the Discipleship Room. If you have questions, call (952) 934-4213.
