The Savior’s Sermon: Don’t Worry! Seek My Kingdom First! St. Peter Worship Sunday, February 23

Welcome to St. Peter! This week, as we celebrate Christian education and commit our offerings to the Lord, we also conclude a series of sermons based on portions of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. May we take to heart his encouragement not to worry about the cares and needs of life, but rather to trust him to provide according to his promises and track record. May we put Jesus and his faith- building Word in first place in our hearts and lives, and those of our children and grandchildren as well!

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 I pray you, dear Lord Jesus, My heart to keep and train That I your holy temple From youth to age remain. Oh, turn my thoughts forever From worldly wisdom’s lore; If I but learn to know you, I shall not want for more.
