We warmly welcome you to St. Peter's United Church of Christ in Skokie!

     Saint Peter’s was established on May 5, 1867, as St. Peter’s Evangelical Lutheran Church by German immigrant farmers. It is the first church organized in what was then called Niles Center. The first building was dedicated in 1868, and many of the members were pioneers in the founding of the community. 
     Since then we have been a vibrant, enduring part of the Niles Township community.  Our chuch bells ring out every Sunday, winter or summer, rain or shine, at 10 AM, calling the faithful to worship.  We enjoy the presence of our children at Sunday School before worship, and the fellowship of friends and family at coffee hour after worship.  And as part of the United Church of Christ, we proudly claim that no matter who you are, or where you are on life's journey, you are welcome here.
