Recognizing and Helping Veterans In Our Community

This ministry places flags on the graves of veterans in St Peter's Graveyards on Memorial Day, 4th of July, and Veteran's Day.

Working with Wreaths Across America, wreaths are placed on these graves during the Christmas Season and remain through Epiphany.

This year, the Wreath Laying Ceremony will take place at 10:00 AM, Saturday, December 16th.  The ceremony will begin in our Parish Hall, then move to the church graveyard.  All are invited and welcome to attend and participate in this activity.

We will be honoring 72 Veterans this year

 

If you would like to honor one or more veterans, buried anywhere, or simply support thisevent, you may purchase wreaths at a cost of $15 each.

You can make this purchase online at https://onrealm.org/StPetersEpiscop6527/give/OnlineGiving-General

 Be sure to add the name of the veteran (s), if any, in the memo line of the form.
