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.

The mission of the Diocese of Ontario ACW is to unite women in promoting the love of Christ with their time, talents and resources.

Palm Sunday
Join us for our Palm Sunday service on April 13th, at 10:00am. Palm Sunday is the beginning of passion week where we remember the crowds triumphal praise around the entrance of Jesus into the city of Jerusalem, only days before those same crowds would yell "crucify him!" We take time to celebrate King of glory and our expectant hope of his impending return. Just like those crowds 2000 years ago, we celebrate with the use of palm branches as we cry out Hosanna! ("Save us" in Hebrew).
​
We also continue our Spiritual Disciplines sermon series with a look at the discipline of "Celebration."
17
Maundy Thursday
Join us for our Maundy Thursday service on April 17th at 7:00 pm. This contemplative service invites you to reflect and pray, as Jesus did in the garden before his arrest. We take time to remember Christ's words to his disciples at the Last Supper, which offers admonition and hope to both them and us today. The service concludes in silence as we remove the elements of the communion table, preparing our hearts for Good Friday.
​
We also continue our Spiritual Disciplines sermon series with a look at the discipline of "Confession."
18
Good Friday
Our Good Friday service will take place on Friday April 18th at 10:00 am. The service focuses around the Gospel readings and carries within it a penitential tone; inviting us to acknowledge our own place and participation in the crucifixion of Jesus along with the crowds 2000 years ago. We are encouraged to embrace and enter into the discomfort of our own sin and compliance in Christ's death on our behalf by sitting with this reality and not racing ahead to Easter Sunday.
We also continue our Spiritual Disciplines sermon series with a look at the discipline of "Silence and Solitude"​
