The St. Peter Dash 5k and Fun Run is a great experience for the whole family to participate in a fun event that benefits St. Peter School and is open to our entire parish community. Hundreds of walkers and runners, both recreational and competitive, from school age to 80+, enjoyed taking over the streets of historic downtown Kirkwood. A post-race party included food, drink, live music, and an award ceremony. Register for the Dash here. Register before September 15 to guarantee a T-shirt.

Our Fall Men's ACTS Retreats are right around the corner. These powerful retreats include a three night, two full day weekend experience hosted by fellow St. Peter parishioners. If you are new to the parish or have been interested in attending in the past but schedules have not worked out, this is your time. This is a wonderful opportunity to meaningfully connect with others and to reengage, recharge, and rejuvenate your faith in a profound way! Learn more or register here: stpacts.psrenroll.com/

Hands on Kirkwood is a community-wide service project day in Kirkwood. Volunteers are needed to help with a variety of service projects, including yard work, outside housework, cleaning gutters, bag pickup, donation sorting, car checks & cemetery clean-up.

This is a wonderful opportunity for members of our parish to serve those in need, and all ages are welcome.

If you would like to help out in any capacity, please sign up by visiting handsonkirkwood.org.

Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a Montessori-based religious formation program designed for children as young as three. It aims to nurture the child’s natural desire to know and love God. This desire for relationship is fed by God’s gift of revelation through Scripture and Liturgy. The atrium, or sacred space for spiritual growth, is not a classroom, but rather a place prepared for the child to fully receive God’s love and feel His presence.  A Level 1 Atrium (ages 3-6) will be offered on Tuesdays from 4:40 pm-5:55 pm.  Space is limited to 8-10 children.  Register online: https://stp.churchcenter.com/registrations/events/1409978 

Registration is open for St. Peter Sunday School!  Sunday School is a place for children ages 3 (by July 31, 2022) through Kindergarten to sing, create, and make friends as they learn about our Church and Jesus’ great love for us while their parents attend 10 a.m. Mass.  Classes begin September 25, 2022, and run through the beginning of May.
