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 from September to June we offer Sunday School during the service for children under 12.
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.

Led by our Lay Reader Emeritus John Walton, this is a time for us to pray with expectation about the work of the Spirit in our church, our community, and in our personal lives for healing, hope, and joy. Time and space will be made available both during and after the service for those that have prayer requests or wish to be prayed over for any reason they may have.

Advent Lessons
and Carols
Join us on Sunday, December 1st at 4:00pm as we launch our advent season with our annual
Advent Lessons and Carols Service.
This service is a time to listen, sing, reflect, and pray as we wait on the second coming of Jesus and anticipate the remembrance of his first coming at Christmas. Feel free to participate as much, or as little, as you would like. Readings are given by various members of our congregation with music led by our organist and choir.

Blue Christmas Service
While Christmas is a time of joy and celebration, for many people it is also a time of heartache and loss. If this is a difficult season for you, or you wish to take time to remember those who are no longer with you during this season, you are invited to join us Saturday, December 21st at 4:00pm. This contemplative service seeks to give people a space to grieve and acknowledge their losses and sadness during this season. It is the heartache of loss and death that led our Saviour to come to us on that very first Christmas, and it is why we await his coming again to finally wipe away all tears and death from our lives.
25
Christmas Day Service
You are invited to begin your Christmas morning in worship and celebration of the birth of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. On December 25th at 8:30am, we will hold a 30-minute spoken service which does not include any music taken from the Book of Common Prayer. This is a great way to begin our celebrations throughout the season of Christmas with the acknowledgement of the best gift we could ever receive, the birth of our saviour who came to free us from the bondage of sin and death! Happy Christmas!!

Christmas Eve Services
You are invited to attend one of our two Christmas Eve services held to remember the birth of our Saviour on this night two thousand years ago.

Our 7:00 pm Service is a slightly longer more traditional Anglican Candlelight Christmas Service includes communion as well.
