We welcome all who are worshipping with us at this Season of Pre-Lent. St Peter's is a specifically Prayer Book Parish theologically as well as liturgically. What this means is that traditional liturgy (services) are the worshipping expression of normative Anglican, (i.e., of the Anglican Communion) belief. We hope that you find your time in our midst spiritually refreshing and beneficial. Please pray for us as we seek to be faithful to the high calling of God’s love as shown in the manger!
