Welcome to St. Peter's website. It is our hope that the information here will give you a small glimpse into our parish and its life. For a better view, please come visit us in person!
Our mission at St. Peter's is to love and worship God; to be a spiritual center for ourselves and the greater community; to work toward a deeper understanding of our lives in Christ; and to love, nurture, and celebrate one another in our diversity.
All are welcome at St. Peter's. Wherever you are on your spiritual journey — full of faith, full of doubt or somewhere in between — you are welcome in this place.
At St. Peter's you can expect to find people from all walks of life — young and old, straight and gay, married, single, partnered and everything in between. Some folks have come to St. Peter's for most of their lives. Others have been here less than a year. We welcome you and those you love. There are many ways to get involved at St. Peter's. Some require training and others simply require showing up. The clergy and members of St. Peter's would love to help you find your ministry.
We believe that God's love was made visible to us and to our world through Jesus Christ, both the teachings he taught and the life he lived. We try to continue Christ's work and teachings in our world today. Our worship and our outreach to the community are committed to doing just that. We also nurture each other with fellowship and educational programs, like our Wednesday Night Forum, parish events such as the Blessing of the Animals, parish picnic, small group gatherings, and GenX/GenY outings. There are many ways to find your place at St. Peter's.
Again, thanks for dropping by our website. We'd love to see you in person. If you'd like more information or to chat with me, please don't hesitate to call or e-mail.
Peace & all good,
Sarah+
