Building Together

What is Building Together all about?

God has been using St. Peter to serve the people of this region for nearly 150 years. It’s a rare and beautiful story of longevity and impact. Even before our school began and the doors were first opened in 1877, the mission of St. Peter Lutheran Church & School had long been established by Christ to “go and make disciples of all nations.” (Matthew 28:18-20)

It was this mission that led God’s people to continue to move forward in faith by then establishing a new congregation five years later. Which meant that in 1882, St. Peter Lutheran Church was now the new congregation on the block.

Fast forward to today and God’s blessing of an amazing trend of growth. We are overflowing with opportunity and in need of larger facilities. We are far from finished. God is revealing that truth to us.

Building Together is a vibrant and exciting initiative aimed at updating our church and school facilities to better serve our growing community. This campaign focuses on providing essential updates to our Sanctuary, youth building (His Rock), a new gymnasium, and 12 new classrooms to support our expanding educational program. With these improvements, our church and school will be better equipped to provide a welcoming, engaging space for spiritual growth, learning, and connection, strengthening our mission to serve both our members and the broader community while creating and growing disciples of Jesus Christ. Together, we can build a future that reflects our shared vision and commitment to sharing the Gospel with our community.

As our school and congregation grows, so do the needs of our ministry programs. The addition of 12 new classrooms will provide much-needed space for children, youth, and adult education. These classrooms will help us accommodate the growing number of participants in Sunday school, Bible studies, and small group meetings, ensuring that everyone has a space to learn, grow, and connect with one another in a safe and comfortable environment.

Through the Building Together campaign, we are investing in the future of our church, strengthening the foundation for ministries, and creating a place where people of all ages can come together to grow in faith and community.
