St. Peter's Lutheran Church

Lenten Project for 2026

Beginning on Ash Wednesday and continuing through the weeks of Lent, we will be collecting offerings toward the purchase of a Family Farm through the ELCA Good Gifts catalog. At a cost of just $715.00, a family farm consists of a cow, a couple of goats, a dozen chicks, two pigs, farming tools, seeds and agricultural training and support. This gift will allow not only a family to grow their own food and have nourishing meat, milk and eggs but offer opportunities for them to sell their surplus at the market! Please consider making a gift to this worthy endeavor and mark Lenten Project on your giving envelope!

Church Council

You are needed!

Your leadership, voice and ideas are needed to help St. Peter’s continue its mission as a church in our community and beyond. There is one 3-Year Term (2026 — 2027 –2028) open. Please speak with Mr. Don Partch if you are interested in serving.

Mid-Week Lenten Service

Each Wednesday evening during Lent (2/25, 3/4, 3/11, 3/18 and 3/25), we will offer a mid-week Lenten service beginning at 7:00 pm Join us for the quiet, reflective service each week as we journey through Lent.

Coffee Hour

Members are needed to host our Coffee Hour and Fellowship Time following Sunday Morning Worship. Making a pot of coffee and bringing in a light dessert (a cake or 2-3 dozen cookies) is all that is needed! Host a Sunday or two during the year and share all those baking talents with our members & visitors!
