ST. PETER’S PARISH MISSION STATEMENT
Jesus entrusted the mission of the Church to Saint Peter. Rooted in scripture, prayer and sacraments, we, the community
of St. Peter’s Parish, embrace the mission in today’s world. Through proclamation of the Word, the celebration of the
Eucharist, Stewardship, ongoing faith development, and the nurturing of a sense of belonging, we will foster an allinclusive community of love.

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION:
“….Jesus turned and saw them following him and said to them, “What
are you looking for?”…”
–John 1:38
What are you looking for? Are you wasting your time looking for the
material comforts of the world? Or, is your heart longing for something
deeper that can only be found by spending time with God? Take time,
each day, and ask the Lord what it is that He wants you to do.
Dear Friends,
My Sincere thanks and appreciation to all of
you for your remembrance with prayer,
good wishes, and cards and gifts at
Christmas and the New Year.
May God continue to bless all of us.
Father Ed Sutton.
