For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. ; John 3:16, NASB
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life ; no one comes to the Father but through Me.; John 14:6, NASB
At St. Peter’s our mission is, “To Know and Share the Love of Christ.” The two passages above succinctly explain that mission. We acknowledge that without the saving death and glorious resurrection of Jesus Christ we are eternally separated from God. Only the grace of Our Lord can wash away our sins and make us acceptable in God’s sight.
The inspired Word of God, as given to us in the Bible, contains all things necessary for salvation. The Old Testament looks forward to the birth of the Messiah, Jesus Christ. The New Testament accounts His life, death, resurrection, and prepares us for His return to establish His perfect kingdom.
We wish to share that Word with the world!
As a member of the worldwide Anglican Communion we rely on scripture, tradition, and reason. However, NOTHING supersedes scripture, the inspired Word of God. We are a liturgical church; but we acknowledge that our liturgy, as set forth in the Book of Common Prayer, is an aid to worship and not an end unto itself.
Here at St. Peter’s you will find people who prefer to worship in different ways. Regardless, we all share the desire to worship Our Lord and share His Word.
