The Episcopal Church USA is a part of the worldwide Anglican Communion – a union of churches who pray from a book of common prayer and celebrate communion with bread and wine. Not all the churches of the Communion agree on all matters but we remain in union. We have a Presiding Bishop and bishops of regional dioceses of the church. It is a hierarchy but not a monarchy.
We, at St. Peter's, are a family of faith connected to our complex history as a diverse community. Lay people and clergy work in tandem with the goal of exemplifying God's unconditional love in all that we do. Leadership is a gift from God, and can be expressed by all people in our church, regardless of age, race, gender, sexual identity or orientation.
Please feel free to visit us. God loves you and your presence among us will be a gift to us.
