Final community Meal
It will sadness and deep regret to announce that Sunday, June 11 was our final regular monthly community meal for the foreseeable future. Thank you to all who supported this ministry and to the regulars who attended over the years. Plenty of delicious meals were made and served since beginning the ministry 10 years ago, and many have benefited from the meals. Please continue to check back on the website and follow us on Facebook for updates and upcoming events.

Tutors Needed
NEEDED: TUTORS FOR CHILDREN IN GRADES 1-6
St. Peter's Lutheran Church partners with many other churches in the area for the York Conference of Lutherans Tutoring Program.
The York Conference of Lutherans Tutoring Program is seeking volunteer tutors to work one-on-one with students on Monday or Tuesday evenings during the upcoming school year! Tutors need not be teachers, or even have a degree. We need people who are willing to assist elementary grade students with homework, read with them, help them learn spelling, math facts, etc. We welcome tutors of ages 15 and up! If you like young people and want to make a difference in the life of a young person, then this is for you!!! Tutors over 18 must apply for clearances, but there is no charge to you as a volunteer. Can’t commit every week? We always need substitutes!
NOTE: One of our primary goals is to maintain the health and safety of our tutors and students. We will be following the guidance of the PA Dept. of Education and the PA Health Dept. regarding safety protocols. Contact Shari Young at ycltutoring@gmail.com or 717-586-9310 for more information.
