This Week @ St. Peter's Church

The Announcements

Mass Readings

Linked are the Mass readings for the Seventh Sunday of Easter.

Feast of the Ascension

On Thursday we commemorate Our Lord's Ascension into Heaven and the ten day period in which the Church prepared for the descent of the Holy Spirit on Pentecost. At 6:00pm we will be celebrating the Mass, the first offered at our new Lady Chapel! This brief form of the Mass lasts about half an hour.

Bible Study: Matthew

Our Bible study will be picking up again on Wednesday evenings beginning on June 14th at 6:00pm. A brief Low Mass will be offered at 5:30pm. Our guide will be Anglican Bishop and theologian N. T. Wright's Matthew Bible Study Guide. Purchase of the text is not needed, nor is any previous experience studying the Bible.

Altar Consecration

We give thanks for Bishop's visit to St. Peter to consecrate and bless our new chapel altar and for the generous and skillful work Rick LeMahieu has provided in the altar's construction. This will allow continued devotion and a more intimate setting for weekday and Holy Day Masses to be offered. The first Eucharist offered in this new chapel will be the Feast of the Ascension (this Thursday at 6:00pm).
