Classes are $5/session on a drop-in basis and are held in the church narthex. Park in the north parking lot and enter through Door #28 on the northeast side of the church.

Sunday Doughnut Sign Up
The Christian Growth Board needs your help! If you attend St. Peter church services on Sundays, you may know that Doughnuts and Coffee are served in the Crossroads before/after all services. It is a great way to catch up with family and friends over a fresh-brewed cup of hot coffee (or tea) and enjoy a delicious fresh doughnut!
To continue offering this service, we need volunteers to help “clean” up the donuts and coffee after the 11:00 a.m. service on Sundays. (Approximate time is 12:30 p.m. – 1:00 p.m.) If you would like to help, please use the link below to sign up. This does count toward confirmation and NOAH hours.
