Thank you note
We would like to thank Pastor Al, Mary Ann, and the congregation for making our Baptism so memorable. The generous welcoming by the church members, as shown by the after service gathering, made us feel a part of the Petersburg Lutheran Church. May our faith always stay strong. God's Grace has been wonderful. God Bless.
