Message from the
Pastor:
Welcome to St. Peter's
United Methodist Church!
St. Peter's Church is a
congregation created and sustained by God's Word, and by God's gifts
of Holy Baptism and Holy Communion. And because of our
Word-and-Sacrament life together, St. Peter's Church is very much
engaged in this world.
Faithfully living the
Christian life is always an adventure. It involves some surprises,
some disappointments, and many challenges. Following Christ does not
come naturally. Trusting and obeying Christ do not happen easily.
Living with and for Christ requires, for starters, a group that we
call "church."
St. Peter's United
Methodist Church is a congregation of God's people who know the
adventure of living with and for Jesus Christ. Our foundation is in
God's Word and Sacraments. Our outreach is to the world. And the
adventure involves standing on the foundation and reaching out to the
world in the name of Jesus Christ.
Know that you are
invited to become a part of this adventurous congregation!
Rev. Paul T. Stallsworth
Pastor
We
exist to offer the love of God through Jesus Christ to the real hurts
and hopes of many differing people that each may enter in Jesus' full,
abundant, and eternal life. We are a congregation of Christian people
who are inviting others to believe in Christ, grow in Christ and serve
Christ together in the world.
We are
located on Hodges Street in the Mitchell Village community of Morehead
City, NC, near the intersection of Hwy. NC 24 and Hwy. US 70, and
behind the State Employees Credit Union and Holiday Inn Express.
