Good News of Great Joy for All People

elcome to St Peter & St Paul’s Anglican Church! We’re so glad you’ve joined us for worship today. For 132 years people have gathered here, at the corner of Metcalfe and Gloucester streets to hear the Good News of what God has accomplished for us in Jesus Christ, to worship, to share life together, and to be sent out in mission. If you have children, please know that during our 10:30 am service, our parish provides nursery care and junior church for children up through grade six. Children usually stay with their families during the beginning of the service and then are called up to the front of the church for a blessing before they head off to the nursery or junior church, where they experience worship and God’s word in a space created for their discipleship. The children return to the service for Holy Communion. Holy Communion is a central part of our worship. All baptized Christian believers are welcome to receive the Eucharist. If you are not baptized, not yet a believer or would rather not receive, you are welcome to come forward, cross your arms across your chest and you will receive a blessing from the priest. If you are a guest today, please stay for coffee after the service to find out more about who we are. Make sure to check out our website (peterpaulottawa.com) and subscribe to our e-newsletters. We are excited about what God is doing in this place.
