St. Peter's Lutheran Church

About this church

St. Peter’s Lutheran Church celebrates Divine Service Sundays at 9:00 a.m. at 63924 240th Street in Moltke Township, about six miles north of Gibbon. The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod congregation describes its worship as Scripture-rooted liturgy, music, and prayer shared across generations. Families are explicitly told that the ordinary sounds of young children are welcome rather than a disruption.

During the school year, Sunday School begins at 8:30 for children age three—provided they are toilet trained—through eighth grade. The published 2026–27 program starts September 13 and uses Bible stories, songs, crafts, games, and activities. St. Peter’s operated a Lutheran school for 138 years before it closed in 2019; that same year the congregation called its first director of Christian education to continue its strong children’s and youth focus. Visitors considering Communion should know that the church practices an altar-care policy tied to baptism, repentance, forgiveness, and agreement with its Lutheran teaching about Christ’s body and blood; guests can speak with the pastor before receiving. Check the calendar for seasonal education changes, but the 9:00 Divine Service is the stable weekly entry point.
