what we’re about

Supporting out Children and Youth

At. St. Peter’s, your children will learn about faith, the Bible, service to the community, fellowship, and caring for the earth. They will discover that they are loved unconditionally by God and that they are heirs to a rich tradition of faith as followers of Christ.

They will participate in age-appropriate, enriching, and fun curriculum that teach the lessons and stories of the Christian tradition.

Building Community Through Our Ministries

At St. Peter’s, we strive to create community and to help others. Through our ministry groups, we work to build connections with each other, making a space where folks can convene and walk in faith…together.

Our ministries also work to create volunteer opportunities to support our broader community as well as our parish. Below are a few examples of our ministry groups. Learn more about our ministries and reach out to learn more!

Women’s Faith Sharing

This group welcomes anyone who identifies as a woman — with or without children – to gather in a supportive and safe environment, sharing our walk in faith through reading, conversation, prayer, and lots of laughter. 

Liturgical support

Help support worship services through reading, acolyting, and ushering, setting the altar and more. Like to sing? Join our choir! There are opportunities for adults and children alike!

Eco-Justice Action

Our vision is to work together to build a just and sustainable ecological ethic that informs our actions every day. Join us in strengthening our parish’s commitment to environmental and social consciousness.
