The makeup of our parish community is diverse and this diversity is a source of our strength. What unifies us is each member's desire and commitment to be a part of St. Peter's. Because we come from many communities and backgrounds we bring together a rich variety of outlooks, gifts and needs. It is critical that each member take ownership for the ongoing life of the community. To that end St. Peter's is dedicated to the work of empowering all parishioners to realize and share their gifts in the service of the community, the church and the world.

At the heart of our life together is the liturgy which gathers us as one people called to share the one bread and cup as sign and mission to the witness of the gospel.  We are committed to a liturgical life which is true
to our Catholic tradition and, at the same time, open to contemporary sensibilities. We believe that the experience of the sacred in community opens us to understand our work and life.

We are dedicated, as well, to a strong program of religious education for both adults and children. We strive to make St. Peter's a center for teaching and learning and to provide for the wider community  programs of quality and interest.  We especially heed the call to welcome new members into the church through the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults.

Our prayer and learning must bear the fruits of service and a  commitment to the needs of all people.  Through social outreach many members seek to both work for justice and encourage others to join in this work.

Education

Members desire to provide educational programs of the highest quality and interest for both the parish and the wider community. The committee plans the yearly Adult Education series as well as retreats and special programs for ongoing learning and enrichment.
