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 - 10 am
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.
Tuesday - 7 pm
On Tuesday evenings we gather in our chapel at 7pm for Evening Prayer. This long standing Anglican practice is a welcome interlude into our busy weeks where we are invited to stop and push back of the temptation to forget to let God be in control of our busyness. We gather to pray with, and for, each other, our church, and our broader community as we seek to walk in step with Christ as his body present to each other and to the world. The liturgy is often take from the Evening Prayer service in the Book of Common Prayer.
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.

Bible Study &
BCP Service
Both our Bible Study (which takes place on Wednesdays @ 10:30) and our Book of Common Prayer Holy Communion Service (Every Wednesday at Noon) are a great way to connect with God and others in the midst of our week.
Our Bible study will be starting to read and study the book of Exodus which will likely be the topic through Lent and Easter to Pentecost.
Our Noon BCP service offers a great opportunity to participate in communion for those that enjoy the traditional prayer book service or cannot attend services on a Sunday.

Board Game Night
On the first Saturday of every month, St. Peter's hosts a table top board game night in our lower parish hall beginning at 6:30 pm.
​
Join us for snacks and a great time of playing some board games in a warm and friendly environment. Feel free to play one of the games provided, or feel free to bring your own game to play with others! There is no cost to this event, and is a great way to meet others and have fun.

Parish Advisory Council
We will be holding our monthly Parish Advisory Council meeting on Monday, March 9th at 6:30 pm in our conference room.
​
Each month our council gathers to pray for and discuss matters pertaining to the guidance and leadership of our church. Council members offer their insights and expertise into various matters the church is considering, which are then presented to the church's corporation for final decision. Any one is welcome to attend a council meeting, but matters for discussion must be brought to the wardens beforehand.

Soup and Sandwich Lunch
Join us after our Sunday Service in our lower parish hall when we gather together to enjoy a light lunch of homemade soups and sandwiches.
This lunch is organized and hosted by the St. Peter's "Fun-raising" team, with the intent of raising money to assist in the ministry life and operation of our church, as it seeks to serve Jesus in our local area in various ways.
​
There is no cost to this event, but donations made as a "freewill offering" are always welcome. We hope that you will join us for some good food
and lively fellowship.

Anglican Church Women
Monthly Meeting
Join the women of St. Peter's as they gather at 1:00 pm to meet and pray together as the Anglican Church Women's Association (ACW). All women who attend the church are automatically considered members and welcome to attend meetings. At our meetings we discuss matters that concern our membership as it relates to community life at St. Peter's, and also plan events which are hosted by the ACW (Such as the Strawberry Social in June, or the Christmas Bazaar in November). We hope that you can join us, as we seek to serve God in this community of St. Peter's.

from 10:00 am - 1:00pm
our "Fun-raising" team will be hosting a Bake Sale in our lower parish hall.
​
Stop by and purchase some delicious homemade baked goods created by the members of our parish family.
​
The bake table of St. Peter's is often the first to have its items sold out when we hold events, some arrive early to ensure you can pick up the items you want. Gluten-Free items will also be for sale at this event.
This is a cash only event.
29
Palm Sunday
The last Sunday of March is also the last Sunday in Lent. Which means that on Sunday, March 29th at our 10:00 am service we will be celebrating Palm Sunday! Join us as we celebrate the triumphal arrival of Jesus into Jerusalem which initiated Holy Week.
​
Our Service will begin with our Children's Ministry marching around our worship space waving palm branches in celebration of the arrival of the long-awaited king Jesus! We hope you will begin your Holy Week with us as we look toward the coming Easter!
