VIRTUS: Protecting God’s Children Training for Adults will be offered this Thursday, January 27 at 6 PM in the Parish Hall. This training is required for all adults (18+) who work with children and teens in our parishes and Catholic schools. We encourage all parents at St. Peter to participate in a Virtus training, especially if your child is involved in Altar Server Ministry, First Communion/Confirmation, Nursery, Children’s Liturgy of the Word, Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, or Youth Ministry.  (Only one session is required. If you have already attended, no need to do so again.) To sign up, or for more information, contact Peter Longoria at youth@stpeterchurch.org.   

Our parish RCIA meets at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday evenings, and newcomers interested in the Catholic faith are always welcome. Tonight, we are talking about the Sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist. Contact Christina at cklyce@stpeterchurch.org. for more information.   

We are expanding our parish nursery staff. The job description is listed on the Diocese of Memphis website https://cdom.org/careers/ Please share with those you know who a good candidate would be and pray for our nursery staff and our youngest members. 

If you are planning to pray more and grow closer to God in 2022, we have several opportunities and tools to help. More details about how to sign up for these and other programs are available on our parish website at the link below.
