Saint Peter’s Church – Chelsea
Welcome to Saint Peters
We are an inclusive faith community, celebrating God’s unconditional love for all.
Through these pages you will get a glimpse of who we are, and Gods call for us to be community in Chelsea New York and beyond.
We are fortunate to worship in one of the most historic and beautiful church buildings in the City, coupled with a landmarked Parish house, from which we feed the hungry and care for the needy.
I invite you to join us on Sundays at 10.00 AM for a Sung Holy Eucharist or on Wednesdays for said Mass at 12.10 pm.
We are in the process of reconstructing our website, and invite you to return soon to experience, “renewing Hope, “through the plethora of ministry opportunities at Saint Peters.
Blessings of Peace!
The Reverend Canon Alan G. Dennis ~ Parish Priest
