What a beautiful and inspiring morning! We were grateful to join St. Peter’s own Michelle Howard, Chief Program Officer of the Osborne Association at the groundbreaking for Chelsea Beacon on 20th Street, where a former women’s correctional facility is being transformed into affordable and supportive housing for people returning home from incarceration.

It was a beautiful example of what can happen when non-profits, community groups and government comes together for the good of our neighbors, making room for dignity, restoration, belonging, and new life. This is holy work, and we’re grateful it’s happening right here in Chelsea. 🌱

Our Summer of Pilgrimage series continued this week with our matriarch Nora Lane, who shared on the pilgrimage of aging. Part reflection, part testimony to God’s faithfulness, Nora helped us to see aging, not as something to fear but as a spirit-filled adventure. Hear the story of how a simple question led to the weaving together of her family on our YouTube channel. Gosh, it’s good to be back!

Last night, the St. Peter’s Food Pantry Crew celebrated Maximillian, our stalwart, ever faithful volunteer who is heading off to college next week! Over the past few years, he would wake up early every Saturday morning to come greet our pantry guests, check them in and make them feel welcome. He has been one of our most dependable volunteers. We gave him a limited edition Pantry Crew sweatshirt to remember us by. Congratulations Max, we are so proud of you!

A new stop on our summer pilgrimage!

Yesterday was our first Sunday worshipping in the Atlantic Theater, a place that’s been part of St. Peter’s story for many years, and happens to have a show that is set inside a church this summer! (it’s incredible how accurate it is, down to the water stains on the ceiling 😭)

Eliana Haas shared beautifully and honestly about her pilgrimage into parenting, how God meets us in suffering, transforms us through ordinary faithfulness, and invites us into the discipline of joy.

If you’re here this summer, we highly recommend seeing the Atlantic Theater Company current show, The Saviors, a tender, nuanced story about faith, doubt, truth, secrets and freedom without a standout cast through Aug 8.

A little update for our summer pilgrimage:

Beginning tomorrow, Sunday, July 12 through September 6, we’ll be worshiping at the Atlantic Theater. Think of it as a change of scenery (and some welcome air conditioning!) as we continue our journey together this summer.

🕙 10:00 a.m. Morning Prayer
🍞 Holy Eucharist outdoors in St. Peter’s afterward (weather permitting) with iced coffee and popsicle hour.

📍 Atlantic Theater Company, 336 W. 20th St.

See you tomorrow! episcopalchurch

Worship is on the move this summer! (don’t worry, it won’t be 500 miles… more like 50 steps.)

TOMORROW, July 5: We’ll gather in the Rectory b/c of the heat wave. The sanctuary accumulates heat over multiple days and has no ventilation, so we’re choosing a cooler, cozier space just to be safe. Nursery care will be on the second floor.

July 12–September 6: We’ll worship next door at the Atlantic Theater, with Morning Prayer in the theater and outdoor Eucharist and iced coffee hour in the courtyard, weather permitting.

As we explore pilgrimage this summer, it feels fitting to leave the familiar, cross a few new thresholds, and trust that God will meet us on the way. David Thompson is our featured speaker tomorrow, sharing about how his experience on the Camino. Join us in person or by livestream!
