This morning we added a new page to our website: a Digital Archive!  Saint Peter’s has a rich history, and we are proud to show it to the world.

The first artifact in our Digital Archive is a PDF of our 1949 Church Building Dedication booklet.  It is one of the most treasured publications in the history of Saint Peter’s, and it gives a great “slice of life” for both the congregation and the community at the time.
