New Thursday "Lunch Break" Bible Study Topic

Wisdom from our Past Synod Presidents

I had one grandparent growing up and she spoke English as her second language. It was always difficult to glean the wisdom she was trying to share because of that language barrier. Nonetheless, the wisdom of those with more experience than us is invaluable. In fact, Solomon, the wisest of kings and people, gave us many great wisdoms to govern our life in the Old Testament book aptly named Proverbs. The Thursday noon Bible study will be exploring wisdom, the wisdom of our first few LCMS presidents. The trouble is, just as with my grandmother, they did not write their wisdom down in English. However, our current synod president, Matthew Harrison, set to work to translate these great men and some of their writings in his book, “At Home in the House of My Fathers.” These men handed us wisdom in their native tongue, German, through difficulties such as civil war, world war, an economic crash, and assassinations to name a few as they guided our church body in America. Join us each week at noon on Thursdays to hear how our former leaders gave us their wisdom that they were first given by God.

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!
