St. Peter Episcopal Church

About this church

St. Peter’s Episcopal Church worships at 188 Rector Street in Perth Amboy. Sunday Holy Eucharist in English begins at 10:00 a.m. and is also streamed on Zoom; La Santa Misa in Spanish follows at noon. Both are Rite II services, and the church provides a fully bilingual Sunday bulletin. The English service combines traditional and contemporary music. Dress ranges from suits and dresses to jeans, and the church encourages newcomers to participate at their own pace in the standing, sitting, kneeling, and spoken responses of Episcopal liturgy.

The parish held its first service in 1685 and describes today’s congregation as diverse in culture and background. Children ages five through twelve have chapel during the 10:00 service on the first and third Sundays, while a youth group for ages eight through eighteen combines faith formation with community service. Other ministries include adult education, healing prayer, home Communion, Sunday hospitality, and space for community recovery meetings. This blend of deep local history, bilingual worship, and present-day outreach makes St. Peter’s distinctive. Confirm Spanish Mass and children’s chapel times before traveling, since individual pages occasionally retain older schedule language.
