St. Peter’s Support Group is for singles, divorced or widowed members of our church. We meet and often play a game or have a speaker. But most of all we’re there to fill two nights a month at 7:00 PM for some conversation and to meet new friends.

We are always looking for fresh ideas for day trips and new events. Every few months we do birthday dinners, occasional pizza nights, and celebrate every occasion we can. Please come one night and see what it’s all about.

We gather most 1st and 3rd Thursdays of the month at 7pm in the Parish Center.  For more information check out our website.

St. Peter the Apostle Parish will celebrate an annual Anointing of the Sick Mass on Saturday, October 3, 2026 at 11:00 AM. This sacrament may be received more than once and is for any person who has become ill and is in danger of subsequent sickness. We especially encourage the elderly to be candidates, but anyone facing major surgery, a serious illness, or anyone who has been afflicted for a long time is invited to receive the sacrament.

Lunch will be served in the Parish Center immediately following the Mass. We sincerely hope that you can join us!

Please call the rectory at 201-261-3366 or email Chris Black at cblack@saint-peter.org and let us know if you wish to be anointed at the communal Anointing of the Sick and if you plan to attend the luncheon.
