Two Programs For Recylcing
For recycling aluminum cans, the Junior High Group is sponsoring an aluminum cans recycling drive for Burned Children. It will benefit the Burn Unit at Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital. There are cardboard containers on the lower level inside the church and by the coffee bar in the Great Room. As for paper recycling, Abitibi will be placing a green and yellow container by the Winslow exit. We will also place boxes inside the church for your used paper. Go green! Recycle!

St. Peter’s Anniversary (1883 - 2008)

In Thanksgiving to God for all the blessings given to our congregation, we celebrated our 125 anniversary of the founding of St. Peter’s through a series of events. These special events started with Rally Day, September 7th. This was followed by Tonya Baker Gospel Concert on October 11th with a dessert buffet after the concert. We ended our celebrations with a special Worship Service and Dinner on November 9th. Click on the link for more details.

Five Year Plan for St. Peter's
At the June 2008 Voters’ Meeting, a new Five Year Plan was proposed. What does this mean ? It means that God is truly moving among St. Peter's. We have a great responsibility to “Embrace the world around us with the love of Jesus Christ.” God has called us to seek and save the lost. We are told in Acts 4:17, “Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.” God has given us the privilege to share with Him in proclaiming the Good News! We are excited to making a difference in this community and in the world for our Lord. So let us role up our sleeves and get to work!
