Children and Youth participated in the service as ushers, acolytes, lectors, intercessors, and gift bearers. The Folk Group led us in joyful music that morning.

Family. Community. A place where you are loved and accepted. The place you come to be refreshed and challenged. The body of Christ. Many interests, energies, and efforts combine to create the place of welcome and joy we know as St. Peter's Church. Most important among them is our people. Us. From the infant passed around and snuggled by many, to the 96-year-old whose stories are lovingly heard. We gather to be formed and strengthened in love. May our love extend, knowing no bounds and leaving none of God's children behind.
God of unchangeable power, when you fashioned the world the morning stars sang together and the host of heaven shouted for joy; open our eyes to the wonders of creation and teach us to use all things for good, to the honor of your glorious name; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God for ever. Amen.
