Welcome
to Our Site
St. Peter's is an Anglican Church, nestled on the border of Kingston and Amherstview. We have been serving the people of Kingston and Loyalist Township for over 60 years, and would love for you to join us at one of our worship services!
​
Worship Services
Each week we gather as a community to worship God in various ways.
​
In addition to our regular Sunday and Wednesday services, we occasionally hold Morning Prayer,
Evening Prayer, and other special services depending on the various seasons of the Church.
Check out our Calendar or What to Expect pages for more details about services.​
Worship Service Times
Sunday - 10am
Our Sunday Service is a "middle of the road" (neither 'high church' nor 'low church') Holy Communion Service, with times of hymn singing and a liturgy drawn from the Book of Alternative Services. We often meet for Coffee Hour after the Service.
On Sundays during the Summer months of July and August our children's ministry takes a break. Children are invited to remain in the service and may utilize one of our Summer Sunday School activity packs located at the back of the church.
Wednesday - Noon
Our Wednesday Service is a traditional Book of Common Prayer service which does not include music, but does offer time for quiet, contemplative reflection.
Do you enjoy musical worship?
Our choir is looking for new members to join. Contact our office for more information,
or join us on Sunday!

Amherstview Lion's Club Santa Claus Parade
After our Remembrance Sunday Service, people are invited to join us as we walk in the local Amherstview Santa Claus parade, or find a comfy spot along the parade route and say, hello!
​
The parade begins at 1:00 pm on Amherst Drive next to the Amherstview Public School. This is a great way to begin the Christmas season and make a connection with our local community. We hope you can join us either in the parade, or watching it!

Remembrance Sunday
On Sunday, November 9th at our 10:00 am service we will be holding our Remembrance Sunday service. This service seeks to recognize, honour, and remember all those who have served, and continue to serve, our country through military service.
​
For many followers of Christ, serving in the military with a willing to pay the ultimate sacrifice of their own lives to ensure the safety and protection has been a core means in embodying the practices of Christian faith, and Christ's own sacrifice for us at Easter.
​
We shall not forget.

Lay Reader Sunday
On this Sunday, November 16th, we will be celebrating "Lay Reader Sunday." This is an opportunity to recognize those lay persons in the church who have heard and felt God's call to assist in leading the worship life of a particular congregation. Lay Readers serve as an example of lay leadership in the community and demonstrate that the worship life of the church is meant to be a shared experience and not the sole purview of the clergy. Lay Readers assist in leading services, prayers, preaching, and, at times, in the catechism of the congregation as there is need. They are an essential part of our church.
