Community at St. Peter's
Looking for community and prayer? Our gatherings are designed to create space and grace as we come together around the transforming presence of Christ. Check back here for more updates as they come!
Advent & Christmas Schedule
Food Pantry Toiletries Drive
Through December 10. We often take for granted being able to afford basic necessities like shampoo, toothpaste, and feminine products that others struggle to get. Pick up an extra product when you’re at the store and drop it off in the box in the foyer for our neighbors in need. For more info, contact Lucia Huddleston at lucialane@gmail.com.
The Advent Journal
Are you looking for a way to meaningfully engage with this Advent season? Pick up the Advent Journal in the back of the sanctuary or on our website, compiled and written by our very own Rachel Rim, that combines prayer, scripture, reflection and prompts inspired by our weekly Advent themes of hope, peace, joy and love.
