recent years (2016 - present)
St. Peter's Lutheran Church marked its 125th Anniversary in 2016 with a celebration brunch in April. Pastor Ritterpusch returned for the occasion.
In 2017, masonry work was done on deteriorating brick and capstones around the roofline of the older portion of the church. Also, the first annual "Journey with Jesus" event was held in July. It was retooled in 2018 to focus more around the Easter story, and a new format was tried in 2019.
The synodical renewal process called R3: ReForm, ReNew, ReVision began as well in 2017. One of the projects borne out of this process as a way of connecting with the community was a community ice cream party that was done in August 2018. It was a great success as nearly 200 people in total between the community, entertainment and members of the church attended.
