Global Church Sunday, January 6th

Global Church Sunday is this Sunday, January 6th (both worship services). We’ll gather for two festive celebrations, including global songs of praise, prayers for world-wide ministry, opportunities to interact with ELCA missionary alums and some time between services to reflect on our relationships with ministries throughout the world.

Christmas Un-decorating This Sunday

Many hands make light work. Join the D.E.S.I.G.N. Team after the late service on Sunday as we “un-decorate” the Worship Center.

21-Day Prayer Challenge

Jeanne Maloney and Pastor Dave are inviting you to take part in a 21-Day Prayer Challenge starting January 7th.

Theater and Theology

Watch a play with your Saint Peter friends and have a theological talk-back after the show with the cast and crew. The plays and discussions can challenge and stimulate your faith in a unique way.

January Financial Peace University at Saint Peter

With Financial Peace University, you CAN take control of your money. Join Jody Hinsey, Mint Financial Strategies, and Jenn Stenbak, 8z Real Estate, on Mondays 1/14, 1/21 and 1/28 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall to participate in this accelerated class.

What Do You Do With Your Copy of the StPLC Weekly?

We’d love to see how you use your copy of Our Life Together during the week. Do you post the prayer list to your refrigerator like the Clair family or do you rely on the online version like the Lancasters? Send in your pictures to slancaster@stplc.org. Bonus points for selfies.

Listen Up! ELCA Has a Podcast

Three Sides is a monthly podcast featuring stories from the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). As a church that believes God is calling us into the world together, Three Sides presents diverse voices from across the ELCA. It’s said there are two sides to every story, but often a middle or third side of the story is revealed, providing another perspective to consider. Find more information and links to past episodes at www.livinglutheran.org/podcast/.

ELCA Youth Core Leadership Team Applications

Are you a youth, grades 9-11, or do you know a youth with love for the church and gifts in leadership? Applications are being accepted for the 2019-2020 team. The YCLT exists to provide leadership development opportunities to high school youth, to plan and lead the ELCA Youth Leadership Summit and to serve as a focus group for ELCA Churchwide Ministries as they strive to do ministry with youth more effectively.
