Today St. Peter’s UCC marks both Thanksgiving Sunday and Totenfest. The latter is a reflection of the church’s ethnic heritage in German Lutheranism, it is its version of All Saints Day. We remember three church members who died this year, and the sermon will also touch on Transgender Remembrance Day. The thrust of the message is to suggest ideas for keeping the faith when cultural shifts such as we’re undergoing seem overwhelming. Thank you for your patience!
