What’s Happening in Autumn
at St. Peter’s

Autumn at St. Peter’s

Autumn at St. Peter’s marks the return to the full calendar of our program year as we acknowledge themes of Creation Care and Stewardship. In September, we kick off the season with Homecoming Sunday on September 8, featuring the annual Blessing of the Backpacks at the 10:00 am worship service. Formation programs including Wiggle and Worship, Confirmation, and Youth Group resume this month also. In October, we host the inaugural St. Peter’s Crossroads Service Awards Banquet on October 5. Our traditional St. Francis Blessing of the Animals is October 6 (pet free at 8:00 am, pet friendly at 10:00 am). Later, the Halloween Silent Film Spooktacular is October 25. Our Stewardship season concludes with Stewardship Ingathering & Potluck on All Saints’ Sunday (November 3). Christ the King Sunday on November 24 marks the conclusion of the Fall season as we turn to Advent!

In addition to our onsite and online worship on Sundays and throughout the week, we invite you to grow in faith with us in this season. We also continue to offer ministry in and with our community in Freehold, with Community Suppers on the 2nd and 4th Friday evenings at 5:30 pm, and through the ministries of the Thrift Store in the adjacent Keith Building. St. Peter’s Lunch Program serves over 600 meals every Wednesday and Thursday. Volunteers and food donations are always welcome. Visit the Lunch Program Sign-Up Genius to see how you can help.
