“Our task is to make disciples for Jesus Christ”
We welcome you to St. Peter’s Lutheran
Church. Thank you for worshiping with us, as
we give thanks and praise to Jesus Christ our
Lord and Savior. If you are new, please
introduce yourself to Pastor Katie, sign the
guest book and the pew pad. We would love
to give you a token of appreciation for
worshiping here today.
The Sanctuary candle burns in loving memory
of Patricia Acee by her husband Abe.
The Altar flowers are in loving memory of
Rick Hilts by the Hilts family.
For April, our Mission of the Month is ELCA
Good Gifts and ELCA World Hunger. This
year we invite you to help “Provide a Pig”
with your donations ($30 buys a pig for a
family in Haiti) and color a pig, just for fun.
Thank you for supporting the April Mission of
the Month – even a handful of pocket change
can help.
All youth are invited to help with our roadside
cleanup on Saturday, May 2nd from 9-11 am.
The gloves, bags, shovels and a truck will be
here at 9. There will be donuts and juice to
energize the workers! If you have any
questions, please contact Jenn Rossi at
271-9689.
Our next Messy Church is fast approaching on
Friday, May 8, 6-8 pm! Hands-on, casual
church for everyone, with lots to do. Come for
dinner, stay for the fun!
Vanderkamp brochures are running behind
this year, but there are flyers on the Welcome
Table with details about the 2015 season. The
theme is “Summer of Peace and Love” to
celebrate the 50th anniversary of Vanderkamp!
Please check out the flyers and consider
spending some time in the great outdoors this
summer.
The Verona Food Pantry is in great need of
peanut butter and any type of pasta. There is a
box in the narthex for these items. Thank you!
We are continuing our can tab collection for
Synod Assembly in the large plastic jar on the
Welcome Table. Assembly is in one month so
the pressure is on! Thanks!
Check out the second bulletin board in the
hallway for information on Tons of Love, a
service project that takes left-behind things
from the SU dorms and gives them away to
people who need them in Syracuse.
Volunteers are needed for this transforming
ministry coordinated by First English
Lutheran Church.
Meet the Bishop at Spring Conference
Assembly! The date is Sunday, May 3,
2:30 pm at St. Paul’s in Liverpool. Business
will be kept to a minimum so everyone has a
chance to converse with him. Let Pastor Katie
know if you’d like to go.
