St. Peter’s commitment to raise disciples and follow Jesus continues this fall as we begin a new season of Christian education. It is our prayer that you join us as we learn something new and deepen our faith together.
Sunday Mornings
Our Sunday School offerings are available for ages 2 thru adult. Our 2021/2022 Christian Education year begins on Sunday September 12th at 9:30 am following our outdoor worship service.
Due to the increase in Covid numbers in Lancaster, we will be holding our Children’s Sunday School programs outdoors. When indoors, we ask that all ages, vaccinated or not, wear a mask to keep everyone safe.

Children Pre-K to Grade 4
Children age 3 thru 4th grade will meet outdoors on the North End of the campus, near the Delp Road side, close to our memorial garden.
We will begin with an opening in our large tent then split off into age groups for our activities. In the event of inclement weather, we will meet INDOORS WHILE MASKED!
Our curriculum is based on the revised common lectionary and will dovetail with the readings in our worship services.
Youth Grades 5 to 8
Grades 5/6 AND 7/8 will also meet outside on the north side of the campus near Delp Road.
Grades 5/6 will have a lectionary based curriculum that is based on our worship readings and explore how the biblical story is crucial to our faith journeys.
Grades 7/8 will be learning and wondering about the basic of the Lutheran faith. This class is preparation for our 9th grade confirmation class.
Grade 9 – Confirmation
Youth in grade 9 are invited to be part of our confirmation class. This class will incorporate the biblical story, Lutheran theology and discipleship which will help our youth on their journey to make the Affirmation of Baptism in the Spring. This class meets at 9:30 am in Room 118.
