Lutheran Liturgical Living

A Lutheran Witness Magazine Article • January 20, 2025

As our culture and society continues to chide Christian practices and distract families with secular activities, conversations often come to the genuine question of: How do we order our lives outside of worship in a distinctly Christian way?

The Lutheran Witness Magazine has begun a series that will take you through a month-by-month exploration of a few of the rich traditions you might consider incorporating into your own homelife that coincide with the seasons of the church year, Lutheran feasts and festivals. The authors’ of this new monthly column and website called allthehousehold.com, Dr. Kristen Einertson and Tessa Muench, are both pastor’s wives and mothers in Minnesota. January’s article starts with Epiphany traditions such as a delicious recipe of a King Cake as well as introducing the website featuring upcoming Holy Days, traditions, and activities you can do with your family at home or open a discussion around your dinner table or family devotion before bedtime. Take a look each month for new ideas! The printed magazine can be found in our Ministry Center, you can look up articles online (we linked this one convienently for you through the button below), or you can order a subscription to arrive in your own mailbox.

A Lifetime of Love
By Pastor Nate Widener July 28, 2025
St. Peter’s Family, My wife Amy and I just wanted to take a moment to thank all of you for the outpouring of love you have shown us over the last several weeks. This past weekend, my oldest daughter Gwyn was married to our wonderful son-in-law Benjamin Corley, and we couldn’t be happier. But, what made it all the sweeter was seeing so many of your caring and supportive faces in the congregation. Similarly, as you know, just a few short weeks ago I lost my father, Nick Widener, and I cannot express to you the depth of my thankfulness for all of the condolences that you have given me and my family. Your cards are all sitting on the windowsill of my office. Without question St. Peter’s is a loving and caring congregation, and this is part of what makes you so great. Thank you for taking care of us, so that we can also take care of you. May God Bless you, Pastor Nate

As we begin our new preschool year, we will need some supplies. It takes a lot of glue, markers and paint to keep preschoolers busy. Please consider taking a letter or two from our “Giving Tree”. Each letter is labeled with a needed supply item to be donated. Once you have shopped, you can return the item(s) to the tree. Thank you for your generosity as you bless our preschool. You are truly appreciated!
