January 23rd Congregation Meeting Summary

Bishop Gonia joined Saint Peter on Sunday, January 23rd. He led worship and spoke to us after worship about Saint Peter’s pastoral transition.

February 6th Candy-A-Thon For Catechism Kids

Catechism participants will meet for a “Candy-a-Thon” immediately following worship on February 6. There is leftover candy from our Covenant Cupboard Stocking Stuffing, so we’ll bag it all up for Friday distribution to households at the Covenant Cupboard Food Bank.

Meet in the Fellowship Hall or let Miss Mary know if you’d like to stuff at home. It can be done at your convenience, or even better, we can enjoy a hybrid experience and get some visiting time together! Questions on either Catechism or LIFT? Ask Mary Pratt.

LIFT Begins Sunday, February 13th After Worship

The next session of LIFT (Living In Faith Together) begins Sunday, February 13, immediately following worship! Unlike the last session where several small LIFT groups met independently, now all of Saint Peter will meet as one big group and then break out for a small time each session. Please be sure to let us know you’re coming so we have supplies ready for you!

Although LIFT plans to meet regularly on the 2nd and 4th Sunday each month through the spring, we will move our second LIFT gathering to February 20, because of the Congregational meeting on the 27. So, we’ll be LIFT-ing two Sundays in a row in February.

Annual Meeting Is Sunday, February 27th After Worship

The Saint Peter Lutheran Church Council invites you to the 2022 Annual Meeting on Sunday, February 27, following the Worship Service in-person and on Zoom. In the meeting, we will approve the budget and elect and/or confirm council members.

Calling All Music Lovers!

Shower singers, seasoned musicians, toe-tappers and hymn hummers - we want you in the Music Ministry! Do you have a secret musical talent or an instrument hiding at home? Do you have a mysterious drive to shake a tambourine or bang on a conga drum? Do you want to explore a new avenue of worship and fellowship?

The Music Ministry at Saint Peter has room for you! If you’re ready to get involved – whether it’s jumping back in or participating for the first time - reach out to Beryl.

Contemplative Prayer On Zoom Mondays And Thursdays

The Contemplative Ministry at Saint Peter is offering the opportunity to participate in guided meditations this year. This poem by L. R. Knost was the focus of our meditation last Monday.  This series is being offered on Zoom and is open on a drop-in basis. No need to sign up, just click on the link at the time you wish to participate. 

To participate in meditation sessions on Mondays 8:00-8:30 a.m. and/or Thursdays 7:00-7:30 p.m., use the same Zoom link we use for Sunday Worship.

Wednesday Brown Bag Bible Study

Saint Peter’s Brown Bag Bible Study on Wednesday afternoons is still going strong.  The group meets (on Zoom) at 11:30 a.m. for some time to catch up with one another and check in on prayer requests. Bible Study begins at noon.   Come join the conversation! 

Habitat Build Opportunity

At long last, we have an opportunity to volunteer on new construction with Habitat for Humanity! Please email Brittany Hass if you're interested in volunteering outdoors on March 19th, 8:45 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. at Project Aria (2813 W 53rd Ave, Denver, CO 80221) and if you would be interested in carpooling with others from Saint Peter.

Saturday spots will be claimed fast so email today! Also, email Brittany if you'd like to be on the information list for future Habitat volunteer opportunities but can't make this one work.
