Every Sunday we offer an 8:30AM and a 10:30AM service. The 8:30AM service is a Holy Communion Service. It is a "said service" with no music and takes place at the St. Mark's Altar. The 10:30AM service is a Holy Communion service on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of the month and a Morning Prayer service on the 2nd, 4th and 5th Sundays of the month. This Sunday, June 30th will be a Morning Prayer Service. We hope you will join us for one of these services.

The full choir will be singing with this week's anthem: "Jesu, joy of man's desiring" by J. S. Bach, and the Plainsong with fauxbourdons Benedictus es, Domine by Neil Keen. Summer Sunday School will take place and Child Care will be available.

Coffee hour will be NOT be offered during the summer months. Coffee hour will return in September.

Announcements

Summer Choir: Members of the parish are invited to come join the singing of the summer choir on any Sunday that is convenient from now through Sunday, September 1st. There is a brief rehearsal at 9:45AM on Sundays to prepare music for the 10:30AM service. No experience is necessary, no weekday rehearsals, and no audition, but the ability to follow musical notation is helpful. It’s rewarding, fun, and an opportunity for the whole family to sing together. Contact Daniel Romero for more information at ddorganman@gmail.com.

Child Care/Sunday School: Child care and Summer Sunday School continue throughout the summer. Please bring the children upstairs to the air conditioned rooms for a short lesson and a snack.

Summer Wednesdays in the Garden: Our normally scheduled Wednesday worship has moved outside for the summer months into the garden between the Church and Guild House. The gates will be unlocked during lunch hours for anyone to bring a bag lunch and or just enjoy some quiet. A short service of Noonday Prayer will be said outside in the Garden on Wednesdays at 12 noon for anyone who would like to participate. Summer Wednesdays will continue through Wednesday, August 28th.

ANGELS IN TRAINING: In July the Angels in Training will feed the needy at St. Francis Mission on Saturday, July 13th and again on Saturday, July 20th from 11AM to 1PM. Please consider helping for these 2 hours and give back to those less fortunate.

Welcome to St. Peter's

St. Peter's is an active church with a rich history. With a faithful membership, St. Peter's seeks to worship God, to support the spiritual growth of all parishioners, to reach out to the surrounding community, and to preserve our unique Christian heritage for the benefit of future generations.

St. Peter's has served as an active center of worship for over 300 years. A member of the Diocese of Albany, St. Peter's existed before the formation of the Episcopal Church after the American Revolution. The current St. Peter's Church is the third structure in the parish's history, the first having been built in 1715.

Much of the life of the church takes place in the Guild House adjacent to the church, which houses the church offices, the Sunday school classrooms, the nursery, the choir room, the archives, a large auditorium with full kitchen, the Pumpelly Room parlor for receptions, and upper floor apartments.
