Learning to Follow Jesus Together.
At Saint Peter’s, people come with questions, hopes, doubts, stories, and a longing for something more. We gather in worship, grow in grace, connect across generations, and serve the world God loves.
Our Purpose
St. Peter’s is an Episcopal church in Arlington, Virginia—a community of people learning to follow Jesus together.
We believe we are
Called together by Christ.
Transformed by God’s grace.
Sent out to serve.
That calling shapes who we are and how we live.
We are people from many different backgrounds and experiences—some rooted in the church for years, others just beginning to explore faith, all called by Christ.
Together, we seek to grow in love of God and neighbor, and to serve the world around us.
This calling shapes not only what we believe, but how we live.
To belong to Saint Peter’s is to join a life of prayer, community, and service.
Worship shapes our faith
We are part of the Episcopal (Anglican) tradition—rooted in Scripture, shaped by prayer, and open to God’s work today.
Our worship draws on ancient prayers and rhythms while speaking to the world we live in now.
This way of believing takes shape in how we live together.
Life Together
Our life as a parish is shaped by a simple rhythm:
We gather each Sunday for worship to pray, sing, hear Scripture, and share in the Eucharist
Through formation for children, youth, and adults, as well as small groups and study we grow in faith
Through fellowship, shared meals, and relationships across generations we connect with one another.
We serve others through outreach, justice work, and care for our neighbors
We’re for the community
We are sent out to serve in the world God loves.
At St. Peter’s, we seek to reflect God’s love in the way we welcome all people, care for one another, engage the needs of our wider community, and work for justice, mercy, and compassion in the world.
This is part of how we live out our faith—beyond our walls and in the life of our neighbors.
Leadership
Our clergy and staff lead worship, teach, offer pastoral care, and support the ministries of the parish.
Our Story
St. Peter’s has been part of the Arlington community for many years, growing and changing alongside the people we serve while remaining rooted in faithful worship and service.
