We are currently in a sermon series called God’s Kind of Christmas.

Summary: Our kind of Christmas, that status quo of the holiday season, can keep us so busy, frantic, and exhausted that we miss the entire point of Jesus’ birth. This series seeks to reset our hearts so that the focus on the Prince of Peace who came to save us from our sins and give us eternal rest.

The service times for each campus are listed below. For both campuses, the Christmas Eve, Eve service on December 23rd will be the same service that is held on December 24th - Christmas Eve.

For St. Peter, all the sermon messages will be the same during the December 23rd and December 24th services and the traditional services will all be the same as will all the contemporary services. The Christmas Day service on December 25th will be its own unique worship service.

At The CORE, all the services between December 23rd and December 24th will be the same, so come to whichever time works best for you and your family!

Absolutely! If for any reason you can’t make our in-person service, you can always watch it live or after the scheduled service on our YouTube channel.

Both of our campuses have parking lots available. At St. Peter, the lot extends back by the school and if The CORE’s parking lot happens to be full upon arrival, feel free to park on one of the side streets (Locust, Washington, and Bennett Streets), or we also have permission to use the Schmitt Title Company and the back Walgreens parking lots, adjacent to our building.

All are welcome! Come exactly as you are - don’t dress up or down for anyone.

Yes, both of our campuses are fully accessible to individuals with disabilities. We have a zero-step entry, making it fully accessible to wheelchair users and individuals with other mobility needs, designated accessible parking spaces, and wide interior walkways. The building also includes accessible restrooms and elevators for ease of movement.

Unfortunately, we will not have any childcare or children’s programming available during our Christmas services. This is a time for families to worship together and we encourage you to do the same! We have several families with young children in attendance, so it’s not uncommon to hear the sounds of little ones during the service. :)

If needed, however, both of our campuses do have sound-proof rooms off of the main worship area for young families. In this space, adults can still hear and participate in the service while the kids have a little more freedom to move about.

No, we will not serving communion during our Christmas services.

We will remind our members of ways to give whether it is online or dropping their offering in the boxes at the back of church, but we will not have a “pass the plate” type offering. Additionally, as a visitor, we are so glad that you joined us and don’t want you to feel obligated to give.

At our St. Peter campus, you will find a mix of traditional and contemporary-style worship, but what does that mean? The sermon messages will be the same for both types of services, but the difference primarily comes down to the music. The traditional service will have hymns sung and played on a piano and includes more scripture readings. Our contemporary services have a worship team up front and they feature modern styles of music and innovative use of technology.
