St. Peter Lutheran Church

We are planning to sort through and clean out stuff in the second garage attic on Saturday, April 24, starting at 8:00 am. Any help with this project would be appreciated! Then on Saturday, May 1, 8:00 am we plan to do yard work and once again would welcome help.
 

All Saints Sunday, November 1, the church’s traditional time to remember those who have died in the past year and those born into our faithcommunity. We celebrate and remember their lives and how we are knit
together with them in the victory of Jesus’ resurrection. We will remember those from St Peter and if you’d like to submit a name of a loved one lost within the last year, please do so before
October 26.
 

​The Lutheran Disaster Response Fund has been activated to answer the call and lift up those who need support to recover from the derecho.
The Iowa Lutheran Disaster Response Fund is a partnership among LSI and the three Iowa
synods of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
Your gift will support your Iowa neighbors as they recover from the destruction left behind by this severe storm. Please consider giving generously.        https://lsiowa.org/disasterrelief/

Also, The Southeastern Iowa Synod is collecting gifts to support relief efforts after the derecho that swept through the state last week.
The Office of the Bishop is assessing the needs as a result of the derecho storm in a large part of the territory of the synod. You can make a gift online to help relief efforts at the link
below. If you'd like to assist in other ways, email Val Harlynn, communications@seiasynod.org
