St. Peter's Stewardship Campaign Update - Please check out this short update on our stewardship renewal drive--Please help us reach our goal!

Good Morning! Today we pray in advance of All Saints Day, thanking God for the saints who befriend us and teach us the way of the gospel.

All Saint's Day is the perfect time to take our prayers to Mary. As Respect Life Month comes to a close, please join us for a Living Rosary this Sunday, November 1, promptly after the 11 a.m. Mass. We will gather, socially distanced, on the steps of the Meyer Blvd. entrance to the Church. All ages are welcome and there is no need to sign up. Please come in time to claim a bead of the Rosary.

Please join us for Mass in celebration of All Souls' Day on Monday, November 2, at 9:30 a.m. We will pray for the repose of the souls of those who have passed; please feel free to bring a photo of a loved one and place it near the Sacred Heart statue. We will display the photos throughout the month of November unless you prefer to take yours back sooner.

Cranksgiving is our biggest food drive of the year--Donations from this annual event help us provide families with holiday meals and food all year long! We can't do things the way we always have--no competitions and no big party this year--but we need your help so we can continue to assist families in need. We will be set up outside in the Legacy Lot to receive donations over three Saturdays: Nov. 7, 14, and 21. The only rules are wear a mask and social distance! You can ride... a bike, drive through in your car, or walk up! We appreciate if you schedule your drop-off time but if you can't pin down a time, just show up. If you are an adult participant and Nov. 7 is the only day that works for you, please feel free to reserve a drop-off time on the kids' signup. Kids' groups are welcome on Nov. 14 or Nov. 21 if that day works best. It's all about collecting food! See www.stpkc.org for links to signups and list of items most needed. See more
