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
Sundays - 10 am
All Year
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.
Mondays - 7 pm
September - May
On Monday evenings we gather in our chapel at 7pm for our new Evening Contemporary Worship Service. This worship service 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. This is a great service for anyone to attend, but we particularly wanted to offer something for those who cannot attend services on a Sunday morning, whatever the reason, or who enjoy a more modern style of worship music.
Wednesdays - Noon
September - May
Our Wednesday Service is a traditional Book of Common Prayer service which does not include music, but does offer time for quiet, contemplative reflection.

Table Top
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 6:00 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. Come on your own, or bring your friends and family! All ages are welcome, we've got great games for children as well!

Parish Advisory Committee Meeting
The Parish Advisory Committee (PAC) will be meeting on Monday, November 2nd at 6:30pm in the conference room. The PAC gathers to discuss the business matters of the church at the leading of the Church's "Corporation," which is comprised of the Wardens and Incumbent Priest. We gather to pray together and discuss what God has been doing through our church, and where we believe God is leading us. Anyone is welcome to attend our meetings, though only PAC members are able to vote on matters arising. If anyone has a matter that they would like raised at PAC, we welcome you to bring it to the wardens ahead of time.

Remembrance Sunday
Join us on Sunday, November 8th as we take time to honour and remember all those who have served our country throughout the decades, and particularly those veterans who have been a part of our St. Peter's community, both past and present.
On November 11th, our regular Bible Study and BCP service will be cancelled due to our clergy's participation in Remembrance Day services around the Lennox and Addington area.
We hope that you will join us as we take time to remember those who fought, so that we could continue to gather freely. We will remember them.

Amherstview
Santa Claus Parade
After our regular Sunday service on November 8th at 1pm we will be participating in the annual Amherstview Lion's Club Santa Claus Parade. We will be walking the route along with the float that we have entered into the parade so that we might spend time with our local community and share some Christmas cheer! We will be gathering the day before the parade, on Saturday, November 7th at 10am, to decorate the float that we will be entering!
We welcome people to join us in the parade or to come out and watch the parade and say hello as we pass by!
21
Annual Christmas Bazaar
Our Anglican Church Women will be hosting our annual Christmas Bazaar on Saturday, November 21st from 10-2pm.
Come out and purchase pies, cakes, cookies, candies, breads, etc., and find something for that “hard to buy for” person (or for yourself) from our bake, craft, and jewelry tables!
We also invite those who attend to stay and enjoy a delicious lunch of soup and a sandwich, along with some mouthwatering apple crisp!
Our baked goods tend to sell out quick so be sure to get here early!
This is a cash only event.

Anglican Church Women Monthly Meeting
Join the women of St. Peter's as they gather at 1:30 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.
22
Reign of Christ
November 22nd is the last Sunday in our liturgical calendar. We will be celebrating the fact that Jesus continues to reign as Lord in our lives and our churches until we see him
face-to-face.
We will take time to recognize all that God has done in our community over this past liturgical year and pray that God continues to use our church to see his Kingdom come in the Kingston and Loyalist areas.
29
First Sunday in Advent
Join us on Sunday, November 29th as we celebrate the first Sunday of Advent together! Advent is a time of preparation as remember the time of waiting preceding the very first Christmas, as we await Jesus' second coming! We will be lighting the first candle of our Advent wreath and taking time to remember those who are no longer with us to celebrate, until we see them again in the new heavens and the new earth. On this first Sunday of Advent, we will be joined by our children's ministry as they share the story of Israel's waiting with a "Jesse Tree" performance.
