What You'll Find Here

A Radical Welcome

What do we mean by “a radical welcome”? We mean that Saint Peter’s welcomes the voices, presence, and power of all people, including those who have been defined as The Other, pushed to the margins, or silenced. We will welcome you if you are ready to walk the path of Christ in fellowship with others; if you are struggling to find your way forward; or if you need a quiet place in which to pray.

At Saint Peter’s, there is room for everyone at God’s table.

A Space For Prayer

As an Episcopal church, we worship according to the Book of Common Prayer, a treasury of prayer that has sustained generations of Christians. We follow a pattern of prayer that is centuries old and yet helps us keep our spiritual bearings in the 21st century.

A Call to Service

We are fed at the altar with the bread of heaven, and then we in turn feed others. Twice a month on a Saturday afternoon, we welcome our hungry neighbors for a home-cooked meal and fellowship through a ministry called CommonCare. We also support a variety of other local programs and agencies that serve our neighbors in need.

A Place to Learn

In the Episcopal Church we take seriously Jesus’ command to love God with our mind as well as our heart and soul. Questions of faith are welcome here. We come together regularly to explore what it means to follow Jesus in this place and time. Each Sunday morning, those who wish gather to read and discuss the Scripture lessons for the day’s worship; no previous knowledge of the Bible is required.

A Generous Spirit

We strive to live gratefully in response to God’s countless blessings, to “praise God, from whom all blessings flow.” Indeed, Saint Peter’s is a great blessing to us. One of the ways we thank God for Saint Peter’s is to give some of our financial resources to this parish. By doing so, we help ensure the future of this beloved community. At Saint Peter’s, we are here to stay!
