Sunday Bible Hour

September to May, from 11:15 - 12:00pm

After church, everyone is invited to stay for an extra hour to dig deeper into the comforting truths we hear in worship so that we can all grow in our faith together.

For children 2-12 years old, we have 3 separate, age-appropriate Sunday School classrooms where they will spend time hearing Bible stories, singing, making crafts, and playing games. Our dedicated teachers foster a nurturing environment centered on the life-saving truth of the Gospel. Our goal is for your children to experience the peace of knowing that Jesus lived and died for them. Additionally, our teachers are committed to equipping parents with tools necessary to spiritually nurture their children at home.

For teens and adults, we offer a diverse range of biblical and topical studies designed to deepen our understanding of what the Bible says and what it means for our lives. Our Pastor draws out details and insights that bring aspects of the Bible into sharper focus. It’s a welcoming space where people of all backgrounds are encouraged to engage with God's Word and connect with one another.

Current Worship Series

“Epiphany” comes from a Greek word that means “reveal.” When someone has an epiphany, it’s not that reality changed. The way they see that reality is what changed, for a deeper truth has been revealed. An epiphany is an “a-ha!” moment causing us to look at things very differently.

In the Church Year, Epiphany is the season where we see Jesus begin his ministry, revealing the reason the Son of God came to earth. In this season we will come to understand that when we have Jesus in our lives, it does not always mean our reality drastically changes. It simply means that we see reality differently (and better). Jesus always provides an abundance of epiphany moments.

Join us over the next 8 weeks for a new worship series: Epiphany Moments.

Have you ever thought, “I wish our congregation was more outreach-minded”? If so, you’re not alone.

For this reason, St. Peter is participating in an exciting new program called Everyone Outreach. The program will help us build a culture of outreach so that every ministry and every member is encouraged and equipped to reach the lost in our community.

How does Everyone Outreach work?

Everyone Outreach kicks off with a workshop on Saturday, February 22nd from 10am until 4pm at St. Peter’s. The interactive workshop will help us discover some of our hidden thought habits that may keep us from being active in outreach. Then, we will learn ways to change those thought habits so that, as a result, our outreach actions change as well. Each participant will leave the workshop with sustainable ways to personally help build our congregation’s outreach culture.

Following the workshop, Everyone Outreach will provide us with tools to help us continue building a culture focused on reaching the lost.

How do I register for the workshop?

To register, email the church office: church@saintpeterlutheran.com.

How do I learn more?

Visit everyoneoutreach.com or email the church office: church@saintpeterlutheran.com.

We encourage every member of our congregation to attend the workshop and participate. In fact, the more members that attend, the more likely it is that our culture shift will be successful!

So prepare your favourite chili recipe and compete for the title of Chili Master. The meal will be served at 6:00pm with worship to follow at 7:00pm.

Midweek Lent Worship

“The Lord is not slow to do what he promised… Instead, he is patient for your sakes, not wanting anyone to perish, but all to come to repentance.” (2 Peter 3:9)

Martin Luther began his famous 95 Theses noting that Scripture’s call to repentance is intended as a way of life. Using David’s great penitential Psalm 51, penned following his affair with Bathsheba and the murder of Uriah, this series of Lenten reflections explores the depths of our sinful depravity, the brokenness of our relationship with God, our dire need for rescue, and the good news of forgiveness, cleansing, and rejoicing in our restored relationship with God and the promise of eternal life through Jesus our Saviour.

Join us Wednesdays starting March 5th at 7:00pm for a new midweek Lent worship series called Reflections on Repentance.

Divorce Care is a 13-week support group for the community. If you, or someone you know, is going through the fallout from a divorce, you don’t have to go through it alone. Divorce Care offers support, answers, and practical tools to help you manage the many stresses of separation and divorce, and helps you find healing.

Join us Tuesdays starting April 1, 2025 from 7:00 - 9:00pm.

St. Peter’s Lutheran Church exists to help everyone stand more firmly on the Spiritual Rock, Jesus, so that we faithfully and energetically share his lifegiving water with the community and the world through our words and actions.

Nestled in historic Sturgeon Heights, St. Peter’s has been serving communities in Central Alberta for more than 50 years. Our namesake, the Apostle Peter, was one of Jesus’ disciples famous for being the first to confess that Jesus is the Saviour of the World. We share Peter’s confession and conviction and we want to share the wonderful news of Jesus with you too! The highlight of our ministry is weekly worship on Sundays at 10:00am. Schedule a visit with our pastor to learn more, or just stop on in!
