On February 20, 1882, 19 members of Immanuel Lutheran Church formed St. Peter Lutheran Church and School. The present church at the corner of 24 Mile and Romeo Plank Roads was dedicated in 1973. Services are held on Saturday, Sunday and Monday and Bible study is offered at the grade school and adult level. The school is one of the largest in Michigan and boasts some 570 students from preschool through eighth grade. With an average class size of 23, St. Peter's students receive individual attention from their teachers and score consistently higher on their MEAPs than their peers in neighboring school districts. In addition to learning core academic subjects, students are also instructed in music, physical education, computers and the Lutheran faith. St. Peter Lutheran Church and School youth also meet at His Rock, the youth ministry building located across 24 Mile Road.
