Learn About Our Church

Welcoming all God's people
Read More About Our Services

St. Peter is a bit unusual in today’s church world. A Christian church with over 100 years invested in this community, it cannot be described as either traditional or contemporary. Because we welcome all God’s people however they come to us, our members reflect a great diversity of backgrounds and understandings of the Christian message. Liberal to conservative, and everyone in between, all are welcome here.

Who We Are

The root of our congregation
Read more about what makes Us, Us

A mid-size congregation, we are home to a true melting pot of people from Lake Zurich and the surrounding communities. We’re willing to lend a helping hand, give a hug, or just sit in silence with you. And we’re all working to live our faith as we have heard God speaking it. In other words, we’re much like you. Whoever you are, wherever you are on life’s journey, you are welcome among us.

What we Believe

We would love to see you next Sunday morning
Our faith is 2000 years old. Our thinking is not.

We believe in God's continuing testament. Religion and science are not mutually exclusive, and your head and heart are both welcomed into our places of worship. We prepare our members and leaders to be engaged in ministry in the present and future church, and we embrace all kinds of communities and new modes of thinking. Why?
Because God is still speaking.

Pastor Ruth FarrellSenior Pastor
 
The Rev. Ruth Farrell was called to St Peter in 2015. Before coming to Lake Zurich, Rev. Ruth pastored in United Church of Christ settings all over the country (including on the Big Island… ask her to sing the Doxology in Hawaiian!) for over a decade. Her favorite things about being a pastor are walking through life’s ups and downs with her congregants, helping people marry their faith and everyday lives, and developing meaningful spiritual growth opportunities for all ages.
