The judgment is coming, yet the Lord’s deliverance for every generation is at hand St. Peter Worship Sunday, December 23th

Welcome to St. Peter! The four candles on the Advent Wreath are burning brightly proclaiming that Christmas is almost here! Our hymns, Scripture readings and prayers for our worship this Fourth Sunday in Advent remind us that God’s deliverance is at hand and it is for every generation as well. May we in our worship, along with Mary of old, magnify our great Savior God who has come to our rescue!

Welcome to St. Peter! There are friendship registers at the end of each pew. Please take a moment to give us your information so that we have a record of your time with us today. Thank you!
