St. Peter’s Episcopal Church provides for a great range of needs including Sunday school, adult education, stewardship, and community outreach programs. Various groups in the community use the Parish House for meetings and events, including AA & NA.
Acolytes, Sacristans, and Lectors are valuable servants at worship services.
Choir - Leads the congregation in singing during worship services, often performing more intricate pieces than the congregation can sing on their own.
Communications - Enhances the communications within the church and supports other ministries.
Healing Ministers pray with parishioners for the healing of body, mind, and souls.
Hospitality - provides a welcoming environment of love, acceptance, comfort, support, care, and unity for all.
Lay Eucharistic Ministers serve chalice at the altar during the Mass. Lay Eucharistic Visitors take the Sacrament to those who are sick or home-bound, thereby extending the Communion rail into the community. Both are trained by the clergy and licensed by the bishop.
Saint Anne’s Altar Guild care for the sacred vessels, vestments, and hangings that grace the altar and church. Ministering under the guidance of the rector, they ensure that the altar is always supplied with the accoutrements required for Communion, Baptism, Holy Matrimony, Funerals, and other special services. They rotate responsibilities throughout the year and meet monthly with clergy to plan future services.
Sunday School Teachers instruct the young children and teens of our parish about the Word of God, they minister to them by involving them in praise and worship opportunities, they encourage the children to help others outside of the church and lead by example so that our young children and teens have a model of what it means to be a Christian.
Ushers and Greeters welcome all people to the church on Sundays, hand out bulletins, assist with seating, help with special needs, provide information, and orient visitors and newcomers.
