Parish Life

 

Our parish life thrives with members of Saint Peter's from all walks of life. We are people of different races, nationalities, sexual orientations, and gender identities. Some of us are first generation immigrants, while other’s are longtime New Yorkers. Together, we are creatively shaping life in the city.

English and Spanish are our primary languages, both of the congregation, and reflected in our liturgies. Since 2019, we are a bilingual church. We believe that God is calling us to form a community where our diversity is considered our greatest strength, and we welcome you to join us on this journey.
