Learning and Helping

The Congregation of St. Peter's is very active.  You will find that we have many opportunities to worship, study and serve.  We have various groups that offer fellowship and opportunities to serve others at the local, national and worldwide levels.  Our members and groups are very active in community outreaches such as the Community Food Bank, Meals on Wheels program, Relay for Life, Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts, Friends of the Elgin Library, Operation Christmas Child, Elgin Caregivers, Elgin Soup Kitchen, Crop Walk and many others. We are arguably one of the most active congregations in our local community.
