We welcome all who are worshipping with us this Trinity Season. 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. We also pray that you might  find time in your busy life to return!
Celebrating 175 Years: There will be a special anniversary service with Archbishop Miller on Sunday Nov., 24th. 11 a.m. There will be a special catered Parish Banquet on Sat, Oct 26 …..dinner will be $25 per person with entertainment and the theme will be the 175th anniversary of St Peters. As we are limiting tickets sales to 75 persons and everyone has to purchase a ticket, even Fr Hebb, it may be advisable to speak for your ticket NOW. Do not delay assuming tickets will be left over

            Sunday School Fall 2013: The SS teachers and Fr Hebb have decided to return to the previous SS time of 10 a.m. to 11:15 for weekly SS classes. Sunday School will commence with a group worship and sing-a-long followed by class. Due to a critical teacher shortage, one (1) children's class can be offered and Fr Hebb will commence  Confirmation class for those 10 yrs old. The class will run weekly from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. with the expectation that the youth will normally join worship at 11 a.m. Confirmation classes will run til April and resume next Sept - in 2014. A confirmation date in late autumn 2014 will be sought from the Bishop.
