Fr. Paul led our beautiful Holy Communion service on the Seventeenth Sunday after Trinity. Please find Fr. Paul's sermon at the following link:
“One LORD, One Faith, One Baptism.”
To go along with his sermon discussing the Epistle Lesson from Ephesians 4:1-6, Fr. Paul handed out a summary outline of the first three chapters of Ephesians. A downloadable PDF of this summary is below:
Also, Fr. Paul's weekly podcast is posted each Wednesday by 8 pm and can be found at the following link:

This podcast will be posted on Wednesday, September 30.
Thank you Hutch for serving with Fr. Paul this past Sunday. Also, thank you for leading our Morning Prayer service this past Sunday.

Hutch has posted a sign up sheet for Morning Prayer readers in the Parish Hall. Please consider signing up for this important part of our services! Fr. Paul is asking for the men in the church to prayerfully consider becoming a Lay Reader.
Benita shared these beautiful pictures of our service this past Sunday!

Both Christian Education and Children's Sunday School continued this past Sunday. In the adult class, Fr. Paul is discussing the Articles of Religion found in the back of the Book of Common Prayer starting on page 603.
Please find a recording of this past Sunday's lesson at the link below:
“A Matter Not Settled – The Church Discipline Act, 1840.”
In the Children's Sunday School class, we are studying the lives of different saints. This past Sunday we discussed the life of St. Lawrence.
After services, Team 2 served several different pizzas and a wonderful salad for lunch.
Their desserts included yellow cake with chocolate icing, vanilla ice cream, and 'Arkansas Possum Pie' (otherwise know as chocolate torte)!
Thank you Fr. Paul, Benita, Laurel, Rose Marie, and Carol for all the delicious food!
Lynn, Diane, Carol, and Jerry all got the 'green memo' on this beautiful Sunday morning!

Isaiah 117 House
The Giving Corner
Jessica has set up 'The Giving Corner' in the vesting room down stairs. Because our support of Isaiah 117 House is ongoing and their needs are ever changing, she organized this corner just for the support of Isaiah 117 House. This organization serves all ages and sizes of children at their house each staying until the child/children are matched to a foster home. We will use this space to collect items including new clothes for children of all ages. Some of the items Isaiah 117 House is in constant need of are:
Monetary gifts
Gift Cards
Underwear (all sizes)
Socks (all sizes)
No used items
Jessica will provide a current needs list as she receives updates. Additionally, their current needs are listed on their linktree which may also be used instead of going through St. Peter's:
Please place any donations in one of the cubbies. Thank you for your support as we support Isaiah 117!
