MISSION STATEMENT
Founded
in 1816, we are a family of believers called, like our patron Saint Peter, to be
the Rock upon which Jesus built His Church in West Center City. Through reverent
liturgy and sacred music, we worship the Living God. Called by the Spirit from
diverse locations and cultures, we invite and welcome all people into the life
of our community.
Nourished by the Eucharist, our mission is to continue to reach out to the
needy, to embrace our school children and their families, to serve seniors, and
to love one another in imitation of our Lord Jesus Christ. We will erect no
boundaries, welcome all seekers, hold back nothing we should share, and rejoice
in the differences that make us one.
Bonded by
love, humility and compassion, we are like the individual pieces of stained
glass that surround our sacred space and come together to be pleasing in the
sight of God. We prayerfully rely on the wisdom and grace of the Holy Spirit to
direct our steps in faith and to use us as witnesses of God’s abiding love.
