Welcome and Introduction
Welcome in the name of Jesus! Welcome to St. Peter Lutheran Church
-- North Judson, Indiana! We invite you to join us for worship every
Sunday morning at 9:00 a.m. or Monday evening at 7:00 p.m. (CST).
We encourage you to let God have His way with you, commit your life
to Jesus and turn your entire life over to following Him.
Our mission is to proclaim Jesus Christ to all people!
That's who we are and what we are about. By God's grace we carry
out His mission in this time and place to His glory distributing His
holy Word and the sacraments. Word and sacrament ministry are the
visible marks of a Christian church in a community. This church is
not mine, yours, or the congregation's church -- it is God's church
assembled to worship Him and serve His purposes as we make disciples
by baptizing and teaching.
God has called each one of us into this church to make disciples of
all in the community, and to offer spiritual nourishment to others
with church services, Sunday school classes, Bible classes, and our
Christian day school for Pre-school through the eighth grade. .
Over one hundred and thirty-five years ago God called a gathering of
people to be His representatives in Starke County, North Judson and
proclaim the good news of Christ Jesus in this community. Our church
and school were both born out of God's calling us into His service
in this way. Throughout the generations our congregation has
responded faithfully again and again to God's mission call, to
overcome obstacles, meet financial challenges, and build facilities
in order to build up the Christian faith in people. This is WHO we
are and WHAT we do at St. Peter Lutheran Church. God has enabled us
with His forgiveness, and exchanged His righteousness for our
sins, to see with His eyes and to be open to His vision for each one
of us, as well as, the church and school. The
question we all need to ask God each day is, "Oh Lord, what is it
you would have us do today to Your glory?" and "What are You doing
in our midst?" As we seek God's will in our life and see the world
with His eyes, His vision, the congregation of St. Peter will
be empowered to walk boldly where ever God leads us. There is no
better path to follow. Thank you for visiting our
website.......please join us for worship soon and become a part of
what God is doing here........regardless of where you end up
geographically, always and each day.......let God have His way with
you and lift high
the cross of Christ Jesus.
Peace be with you,
Rev. Michael Boyd
