What's Happening at St. Peter's

 

Our prayers go out to the loved ones who have been killed in the terrible tragedy at the Boston Marathon. May those who have died rest in peace. Our prayers also go out to all those injured with hope and prayers that they fully recover. Let us take time to pray for peace and an end to such tragic violence that continues to affect the lives of innocent people and all of us as well. May God be with those directly affected by the senseless bombings, Boston and the greater Boston area and for our world so much in need of healing and wholeness.

Upcoming Events  
 



Afterworks 20th Anniversary Celebration 
Saturday, May 18th 
This year Afterworks will celebrate its 20th year!  When it first opened in 1993, Afterworks had only one Director/teacher and four students. Since then, hundreds of children have been welcomed into the program, many of whom are now college graduates. To mark this important anniversary, you are invited to an evening of food, singing, and dancing, from 6pm - 8pm. We hope that you will join us to celebrate this important milestone of Afterworks, which is both an after school program & outreach ministry of St. Peter's. Please contact Vyonni de Mel at 617-661-8831 for more information and to purchase tickets.

Pentecost
Sunday, May 19th 
On Sunday, we will celebrate one of the three main festivals of the Church Year, the Day of Pentecost. Jesus prepared his disciples for the coming of the Holy Spirit, and we celebrate that day with great fanfare every year in the Church. We refer to it as the 'Birthday of the Church.' We'll have special music including trumpet, the reading from the Acts of the Apostles in numerous languages and have a birthday cake as part of our Coffee Hour celebration. Tradition asks us to wear red as part of our day, as the liturgical color is red to represent the fire of the Holy Spirit. Please, plan to worship with your family of faith if you can.

Wednesday Adult Forum
Please join us Wednesday evenings in Eastertide for a study of the Book of Revelation. Revelation is a vision of the struggle and ultimate victory of the Church against the powers of evil. Click here for the full schedule. As always, we have Contemplative Eucharist at 6pm followed by a light supper at 6:45pm. Our study begins at 7:30pm and ends promptly at 8:30pm. All are welcome at all or any of these opportunities!
