Scripture Study: Explore the upcoming Sunday readings each Wednesday at noon while enjoying your own bag lunch with fellow parishioners in room 145.

Children’s Liturgy of Word is offered every Sunday during the 5:00 Mass at our St. Peter’s Church site so our youngest parishioners can more fully understand the readings at Mass. Participants will be called forth before the first reading and gather in the library to listen to the word at their level returning to the Mass during the offertory.

Confirmation preparation is offered on various Sunday evenings from 6:00-7:30pm for those young people in 11th or 12th grade who are preparing to receive this sacrament

Upcoming Events


February 10 at 1:00pm or 6:30pm in Room 144 Fundamentals of the Faith: A Love That Lasts

There now seems to be a free-for-all idea of “love”—personally decided and self-centered—that often leads to heartbreak and unhappiness. Is that what God intends when he is called “Love” by the writers of the New Testament? What does it mean when we talk about love—and God’s calling for us to love him and those around us? Join us in Room 144 as we explore these and more questions. Sessions are at 1:00 or 6:30. Registration is appreciated by calling 262-284-2102 or online here
