OUTREACH MINISTRIES
of ST. PETER'S CHURCHOutreach Commission Vision Statement
The Outreach Commission envisions St. Peter's Church in the Great Valley to be a center of mission activity, reaching out broadly with wisdom, responsiveness and spontaneity.
Through God’s grace, the Outreach Commission will lead the parish as we strive together to set free those caught in the malevolent grip of poverty, injustice, disease, and hopelessness.
We will go forth in the name of Christ as caring, evangelistic, and compassionate laborers, with a commitment to intentionally increase our gifts of time, talent and treasure.As members of St. Peter’s Church in the Great Valley, we are fortunate to have the opportunity to make a difference in the life of the Church, our community, and communities around the world.
