God is Good!!

Our Winter Wonderland Gala was a big hit last Friday night! The committee did a phenomenal job with the preparations and the event was filled with a great atmosphere of joy and community. The generosity of our St. Peter families was also on full display over the past few months leading up to and during the night of the big event. We raised $115,000 in total!! God is so good and continues to bless us abundantly. The proceeds from the event are going towards improvements in the MAC. If you didn’t have the chance to contribute and would like to do so, there is a link further down in the Saints Update. Thank you. Enjoy your 4-day weekend!

GOD’S STORY = YOUR STORY WORKSHOP
Life is hard and explaining the hard things of life to your kids can be even harder. What if you could see beyond the hard things in life to the grander thing God is up to? What if you could reframe the way you talk to your kids about hard things and see how God can use them for His glory and our benefit?

God can shape and mold us in the midst of hard things. Through a set of thinking exercises and discovery tools the God’s Story = Your Story Workshop helps men and women recognize how God has been present and working through the highs and lows of life. You will leave with a simple expression of what God has done that's easy to share with your kids and others.

Register for one of the following workshops.
Saturday, Feb 22, 9am-12pm Room 222. Register HERE

OR

Tuesday, March 11, 6pm - 9pm Bartz Hall. Register HERE
