On October 10, 2010 St. Peter's, Ottawa, will celebrate its 100th Anniversary under the themed
banner of Thanksgiving. Located in the heart of downtown historic Ottawa, St. Peter's has a long
and proud history within the community. A year-long, Thanksgiving to Thanksgiving, celebration is
being planned, with weekly events that will build upon monthly themes. The year-long events will
culminate in a special 100th Anniversary Service, at which our National ELCIC Bishop will preach
and a specially-commissioned 100th Anniversary anthem will be performed.
