Tina Campbell Getting to know you! St. Peter’s offers a variety of events and hospitality offering a welcoming place for all. Jesus’ ministry conveyed the importance of hospitality and fellowship time and again with fellowship being noted as a vital part of Acts 2:42. As we get to know one another, we develop a sense of family. Be our guest… bring a guest! Come share your gift of hospitality in creating and serving at these friendship-rich occasions. |

Neighbors!
Hey neighbor! You know that face, but not the name! Passing cars with St. Peter’s stickers and recognizing faces in your neighborhood? St. Peter’s wants to build on the sense of community at this growing, exciting church and help make connections with each parishioner. The “Neighbors” ministry has grouped parishioners by geographical neighborhoods with a leader.
This ministry can also help us welcome the “newcomers on the block” and introduce them around, reach out when there’s a pastoral need, invite other neighbors to church, and just be that friendly face each Sunday. If you move or haven’t gotten connected with your neighborhood, contact Tina Campbell at tcampbell@saint-peters.net.

Men's Ministry

St. Peter’s Men's Ministry offers many programs, small groups ,mission-minded ministries and fellowship events for all men in the church, so that they may grow in their faith and service to Christ.
Programs include but are not limited to Men's Monthly Breakfast, Anglican 4th Day Weekend, Men's Gathering, and more. . .
Women's Ministry

The Mission and Purpose Statements for St. Peter’s Women’s Ministry Council say almost all there is to say about “who we are” and “what we do”. We are a new, “homegrown” women's council which draws together the many women's ministries that have formed in our 4 years of existence in order to aid each other and to avoid “reinventing wheels” (or duplications). All of St. Peter's women are encouraged to participate in serving Christ and His Church through these various events and organization, and we are always open to new avenues of service.
