History

 

The Episcopal Church is made up of between two and three million worshipers in about 7500 congregations across the United States, Honduras, Taiwan, Colombia, Ecuador, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Venezuela, the British Virgin Islands and parts of Europe.  We are a part of the world-wide Anglican Communion.  St. Peter's in Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin is just a small part of that greater church; however, even the smallest are called on to make a difference in this world.  We strive to put our best forward into our community, focusing on St. Peter's outreach, stewardship, study and worship.  All of these ministries help make up our mission, which is to help people create that spiritual relationship between our communities and God.

  

The Episcopal Church strives to live by the message of Christ, in which there are no outcasts and all are welcome.  Walking a middle way between Roman Catholicism and Protestant traditions, we are a sacramental and worship-oriented church that promotes thoughtful debate about what God is calling us to do and be, as followers of Christ.  This information was taken from the National Episcopal Church's website.
