SURPRISED BY JOY
Dear faithful people of Saint Peter's Church

Saint Peter’s Church is closed from Thursday, July 4 through Saturday, July 6. There are no meetings or programs at the church during this holiday break.

July 7 is the Fourth Sunday after Pentecost and on this day Jesus surprises his followers with the power they have through him to defeat the forces of evil in the world.

Carole and I will return from our vacation on Tuesday, July 23.
Cantor Bálint Karosi is on European tour in Germany this week, while Ike is busy preparing for his tour through Denmark. We are pleased to welcome Cantor Donald Meineke as our guest organist during Bálint’s absence.

Peace and Joy - and Courage! 
The Rev. Amandus J. Derr
Senior Pastor
