Called to Give our Best to God St. Peter Worship Sunday, January 27th

Welcome to St. Peter! We are in the middle of our three week special stewardship encouragement titled, True Riches. Today’s readings, prayers and hymns encourage us to give God the best of our financial blessings since he has already given us his very best – his one and only Son to be our Savior.

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!

For Our Guests If you have questions, let us try to help. Speak with an usher, greeter, or the person next to you. If you’d like to learn more about St. Peter and its ministry, please talk to a pastor or member after the service.

Prayer before Worship O merciful Creator, your hand is open wide to satisfy the needs of every living creature. Make me always thankful for your loving providence; and grant that I, remembering the richness of your grace, may be a faithful steward of all your good gifts. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

Please be courteous and silence all pagers and cell phones. Thank you

OUR COMMUNION PRACTICE In the Sacrament of Holy Communion, we express unity with our Savior and those who share our faith and stand on the teachings of God’s Word. Therefore, we invite to our altar those who are members of St. Peter or members of the WELS/ELS. Visitors who wish to commune are asked to speak to a pastor before the service begins.
