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.

Book of Common Prayer Communion Service
Our weekly Book of Common Prayer Holy Communion Service takes place on Wednesdays at 12 pm. Join us for a simple and contemplative spoken word service. If you are a shift worker, have a hard time getting to our Sunday Service, or simply prefer connecting with the Anglican tradition of worship as expressed in the BCP, this service is for you. Each service contains a brief homily about a saint or festival found in the church's history to inspire us to continue in the faithful footsteps that have gone ahead of us.

Winter Accessories
Collection
Beginning on Sunday, January 12 through to Sunday, February 2nd we will be collecting Winter Accessories of various sizes to donate to those in need throughout this winter.
We will be collecting hats, mitts, gloves, scarves, and socks for both children and adults and will be donating them to various organizations in and around the Kingston Loyalist area.
Many of these items are easily lost throughout the winter, and this is our opportunity to clothe others as if we were clothing Christ himself.

Study Group
On Wednesday mornings, beginning on January 15th we will be holding a bible study at 10:30 am in the conference room. The topic for this coming season will be Paul's Epistle to the Philippians. What does Paul have to teach us today about the nature of Christian joy, especially in the face of hardship and suffering. This point is emphasized by the fact that Paul was in prison when he wrote his letter to the church in Philippi.
​
No previous knowledge is necessary and we will not be utilizing any books apart from the Bible. We hope that you will join us!
