Every year, as we prepare to celebrate Jesus’ resurrection from the dead on Easter Sunday, we prepare our hearts and minds by observing the season of “Lent.” Typically, this season is a time of somber reflection on the suffering and death of Jesus, in view of which Easter can truly be a time to rejoice. Without the Cross, the Empty Tomb has no meaning!
Mid-week services, which will be available at 2:00 pm at the Lutheran Home, and 6:30 pm at St. Peter.

This weekend will commemorate the fateful day that Jesus entered into Jerusalem, where He had long anticipated His own arrest, trial, and crucifixion. A day of mixed emotions – both sorrow and anticipation – it is also a great day for worship!

On the last night Jesus would spend with His disciples, He gave them a powerful gift – The Lord’s Supper – which we are still privileged to receive today!
Good Friday

A beloved St. Peter tradition, our Good Friday “tenebrae” service of darkness includes a wide variety of special music and scripture reading, accented by extinguishing all of the lights and ending in silence and darkness.
