Worship this Sunday at our old church on Geyer Road

Keeping with tradition on Memorial Day Weekend, our Sunday worship on May 26 will be held at the Old Meeting House.  Invite friends to join us!  We will be singing some of your favorite hymns that were noted on the survey we took last year.

If you have not been there before, our old stone church is on Geyer Road about 1/2 mile south of Clayton Road.  Parking is available on side streets near the church.  There is plenty of AC.  No bathrooms though so plan ahead.

Summer Sunday School

This summer our Sunday School for Kindergarten thru 5th Grade will meet during the months of June and July.  We’re going “Around the World” to learn about how the Presbyterian Church is helping people in other countries through mission service work.  Activities such as crafts, games and making snacks will round out the program.  Kids, please join us for a fun summer of Sundays!  (Note: Sunday School does not meet on the first Sunday of each month when we celebrate communion together in worship.)

Thank you for supporting our music ministry!

The Janet Boyer Fund was established in memory of longtime Faith Des Peres member Janet Boyer, who was an accomplished musician and founder of Music Folk in Webster Groves.  Gifts to the Boyer fund make appearances of musicians such as A Fifth Above (the woodwind quintet we enjoyed this past Sunday) and the Jim Dandys possible.  Thank you to those who made special contributions for music in Fiscal Year 2012-13.
