Stpetersumc.org is currently undergoing scheduled maintenance. We apologize for the inconvenience.
St. Peter’s provides two services on Sundays at 8:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. Because the earlier service is smaller in number, it tends to be less formal.
During both services a nursery staffed by professionals is available for young children (infants through kindergarten). Older children will appreciate the Children’s Time during the worship service.
At the 11:00 service the congregation celebrates the Lord’s Supper once a month, usually, but not always, on the first Sunday of the month. At the 8:30 service we celebrate Communion every Sunday. We practice open communion which means it is not necessary to belong to this or any other congregation to take part.
At the prompting of the ushers, the congregation gathers in groups around the communion table, where you may kneel if you wish. The bread and the cup are passed around the table. To use the intinction method we receive a piece of bread from the pastor, dip it in the cup and partake. If you prefer, at 11:00 small cups are also passed and may be used in place of intinction. Please return to your seat as directed by the pastor/usher. If you would prefer to take communion in your seat, please notify the usher and we will be happy to accommodate you.
