Pastor's Message
Reflections from Pastor Ruth
April, 2026
As I was reflecting on all those faithful volunteers that made
Palm Sunday worship and fellowship such a wonderful event as
well as all those who worked to make Holy Week and Easter so
memorable, I said "Thank you God for St Peter's!" The list of
those who gave so generously of their time and energy over this
last weekend is long: Those who helped lead worship as readers
and intercessors, all those who helped read the Gospel during
both services, those who sang in the choir, those who helped as
Ushers and Greeters and Altar Guild, those who provided the
large palms to decorate everywhere, as well as the smaller
palms we used for the procession, those who helped with live
streaming, and those who were pew polishers, and palm cross
folders and those who worked so hard to plan, set up, serve, and
clean up the BarBQue and Coffee hour, those who worked the
BarBQue Grill, those who decorated the Parish Hall and Garden
so beautifully, and those who worked the Shave Ice Machine
and provided great food for the lunch (and I know I am forgetting
someone, so if you know of someone I have missed, please
pass this on!!)
For ALL of you I give thanks!!
