What Do Lutherans Believe?
At St. Peter Church and School, we hold the historic Christian faith as part of the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS). Our beliefs are rooted in Scripture and the Lutheran Confessions, providing a strong foundation for faith in today's world.
1. The Triune God
We confess and celebrate one God in three persons:
- The Father: Creator and sustainer of all that exists, who continues to care for His creation
- Jesus Christ: The Son who became human to live, die, and rise again for our salvation
- The Holy Spirit: Who creates and sustains faith through God's Word and Sacraments
2. Grace-Centered Teaching
Our focus remains on God's unconditional love and forgiveness through Jesus Christ. We teach that we are saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone – not by our own works or merit. This liberating truth shapes everything we do:
- Christ-centered preaching that applies God's Word to daily life
- Weekly celebration of the Lord's Supper for forgiveness and strength
- Traditional liturgy with contemporary musical expression
- Strong Biblical teaching that connects ancient truth to modern life

- Baptism: A life-giving water that brings forgiveness and new life

Law and Gospel
We recognize both God's demands for perfection (Law) and His gift of forgiveness in Christ (Gospel). This understanding helps people:
