St. Peter's Anglican Church, where Christ is changing lives to change the world, is committed to Missions and Outreach.

St. Peter's is a House of God, founded on the Rock of Christ, and supported (bound together) by four solid pillars: worship, fellowship, education, service. As we grow in our understanding of the grace and truth of God, we cannot help but want to serve Him; to reach out our hands in love to others that they too might know the joy and wonder of life in Christ.

Worship, Fellowship, and Education, lead to Service ; God forms us through worship, fellowship, and education, SO THAT we might be the Light of Christ in the world.

"You will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."  Acts 1:8
