That’s right!
Our Ministry Fair will be setup the weekend of August 22/23.
This fair is a great way to learn more about the many ministry

The bottom line is that St. Peter’s needs you.
With your help and commitment, we can better reach out to the
needy, feed the hungry,
visit the lonely, spread the Word, educate our children, build
our community
and enhance the worship experience for all.
Whatever your talents, everyone at St. Peter’s has something
unique to offer.
We can find a good fit for you.
Tables of information, manned by ministry leaders and staff who
can answer your questions,
will be awaiting you in August. Can’t wait until August?
Then contact the parish office at
stpeters@btcsmn.org
and we’ll find a ministry that will nourish your soul and make
you feel more connected
to the St. Peter’s parish and community.
We look forward to hearing from you.
