Welcome to St Peter's UCC
in Skokie
An Open and Affirming Congregation
We’re so glad you’ve decided to check us out!
We are a very friendly bunch, and we love to meet new people and share new experiences with them! The best way to make new friends is to get to know each other a little bit, so here are a few things you should know about US!
First, we are a part of the United Church of Christ, which means we are passionate about our faith and open in our thinking. We believe in a Triune God who loves EVERYONE, no matter who they are or where they are on life’s journey. We invite all Christians and seekers after God to partake of the Lord’s Supper with us regardless of denominational background.
The next important thing to know about us is that we are an Open and Affirming congregation. This means that we believe that since we’re all made in God’s image, all people are created equal, and are to be treated, loved, and welcomed equally, regardless of gender, orientation, race, economic status, or physical or mental ability. We welcome all people to share our Church in worship, marriage, baptism, funeral, and fellowship. This is the promise we make to you … all are welcome.

He has shown you, O mortal, what is good.
And what does the Lord require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
and to walk humbly with your God.
Micah 6:8

St Peter's is honored to be a part of the large (and growing!) number of groups who are doing good in the community. In 2022, we held an Outreach Open House, bringing together over 20 local non-profit organizations to meet, share, and learn about each other. Download the Outreach Contact List to reach out to these groups if you are looking for assistance, or for a place to plug in!
