We Welcome You to
St. Petri Lutheran Church
St. Petri Lutheran Church is a member congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) and the Northeastern Iowa Synod of that church. Our mission statement declares that "We are disciples of Christ, called to grow in Christ and to invite all to follow him."
From its earliest days, St. Petri Lutheran Church has been building upon the foundation of the confession of faith made by St. Peter in Matthew 16:16: Jesus is "the Messiah, the Son of the living God." The foundation is Jesus, and everything we do is rooted in and defined by his grace and mercy for us.
Our Mission as a
Church
We are disciples of Jesus Christ, called to grow in Christ, and to invite all to follow him.
St. Petri is a congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America and is the oldest congregation in the community, rich in history and rooted in the promise of God’s love and mercy. We meet together weekly in fellowship and worship to grow in our knowledge and relationship with Jesus Christ. We are a welcoming church and invite all to come and worship with our faith family.

Quilters
If you enjoy sewing, quilting or engaging in lively conversation as you tie quilts (no experience necessary), we have a couple of quilting groups you could be a part of in our congregation. Both meet at different times through-out the year for various projects. For more information about their meeting times, contact Veronica in the office.
Tithe at Your Convenience
Tithing is Biblical. Everything we have is bestowed upon us by God. To tithe is to show thanks for all that is ours. You can tithe in person at our church or reach out to us for more information on how you can tithe at any time.

The Power of Giving
Donating is more than just a financial contribution; it’s an act of hope and compassion that transforms lives. Whether supporting those in need, funding crucial programs, or empowering communities to thrive, your gift creates lasting impact. Every donation, no matter the size, is a step toward a brighter, more equitable future. Together, we can turn generosity into meaningful change-because when we give, we grow.
