"Whoever welcomes this little child in my name welcomes me;
and whoever welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me."
Luke 9:48

Children's Chapel

The Christian formation of our children is one of the most important elements of St. Peter's mission. In recent years, many of the new families that have joined St. Peter's have done so out of a desire to introduce their children to a program of meaningful Christian education. We encourage you and your family to join us in this important effort as we work to bring Jesus' teachings to a new generation of Christians.

Church School begins on Sunday mornings during the 10:00 worship service. Classes meet in the Parish Hall and in various classrooms throughout the building. On Eucharist Sundays, children join their families in church for communion.

All classes from Pre-School through Grade 8 follow the Witness Curriculum.

Childcare is available on Sunday mornings starting at 9 a.m. during the adult education hour and continuing through the 10 a.m. church service. The nursery is located on the ground floor across from the kitchen.

All adults are invited to participate in St. Peter's Church School Program on Sunday mornings. You may choose to volunteer as a teacher, an assistant teacher, a substitute teacher, or a leader of special events.
