Congratulations to Janine & Leighton Richardson, who were selected by the Absalom Jones Commitee at St. Peter's for this year's Absalom Jones Award! The award will be given during the Absalom Jones Service at St. Cyprian's Church in Roxbury on February 12th at 4pm.
...we are now encouraged through the grace and divine assistance of the friends and God opening the hearts of our white friends and brethren, to encourage us to arise out of the dust and shake ourselves, and throw off that servile fear, that the habit of oppression and bondage trained us up in.
- Absalom Jones

As Disciples of Christ, we share the gifts of ourselves, our time, our talents and our money in support of the ministry of the Parish. When we continue to give for the benefit of others, the Church teaches us that God blesses us with even greater abundance.
How can we best support the ministry of St. Peter’s 2012? Let us pray in thanksgiving for St. Peter’s, its ministry, and all those who make up this dynamic community of faith. Let us pray for wisdom to discern what we might give back to God through our commitment in 2012. Click here for more details on Stewardship 2012: Partners in Ministry. |
