St. Peter’s is a welcoming, spiritual, and inclusive faith community. Although we worship in a beautiful, historic building, we are anything but old-fashioned! St. Peter’s today is an active and vibrant congregation—a place where people of all ages come together to explore their faith and connect with one another. At St. Peter’s, we find community, acceptance, and a sense of belonging.

Amidst the noise of the world, St. Peter’s is a touchstone to what is essential and good—a quiet time in a busy life and a way to help those in need. St. Peter’s can be your touchstone, too.

We invite you to learn more about the Episcopal Church and St. Peter’s. Join us for a worship service, attend a special event or program, or volunteer at our Food Cupboard. We look forward to getting to know you!
