About Us

Picture
At St. Peter we believe that we are saved from the penalty of our sins solely by the grace of God through faith in the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ on the cross, which is revealed to us in the Word of God, the Bible.
We believe in the God the Father Almighty, the Maker of heaven and earth. And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell. The third day He arose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty. From thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. We believe in the Holy Spirit. The holy Christian church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
- The Apostles Creed

We are a congregation of the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod. This means that we "walk together" with other Missouri Synod congregations who hold to a shared confession of Jesus Christ as taught in Holy Scripture and the Lutheran Confessions, the correct interpretation and presentation of scriptural teachings. Holy Communion is celebrated every on the first and third Sundays at St. Peter. This is a very sacred and holy meal for us.  We believe that in the Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper we truly receive the body and blood of Jesus in, with, and under the bread and wine for the forgiveness of our sin and the strengthening of our faith. (Matthew 26:26-28; 1 Corinthians 10:16)  We also believe that all who come to the Lord’s Table should be in complete unity in what they believe about Jesus and His teachings (1 Corinthians 11:26).
This is not meant to exclude, but to respect.  If you belong to another church family, or are still learning about the Christian faith, we respect that.  We don’t want you to compromise your personal beliefs by communing with us, and we respect and honor your decision to refrain from communing until you agree with what we believe.  If you have any questions about this, or want or learn more about our Communion practice, please talk with our pastor when you visit with us.
