Handicap Accessibility Celebration

St. Peter’s recently completed a handicap accessibility project. Up until now, those with mobility problems could not easily participate in the life of the congregation. We had steps up into our sanctuary and down into our fellowship hall.  To fix this, we put in an elevator and automatic opening doors. There were a few other improvements made as well, such as the installation of a new tile floor. the renovation of a bathroom, and more.

To celebrate and to call attention to these improvements, we put on a great celebration. (Wisconsinites know how to party!) We hosted a chicken dinner, dedicated the elevator, and finally took in a great concert by Parks, Phillips, and Company. (Pastor Chris joined in to sing on the final song.)

We could not have done this without some incredible support from many people. Ruth Krueger very generously supported this project by a monetary donation. Don Krueger was an incredible leader in seeing this project through from beginning to end. Arnie Johnsrud, Nila Schley, and Joyce Bathke were the driving force behind the celebration. Many thanks to these and everyone else in this momentous point in St. Peter’s history!
