Sunday 27 July at 6pm

Taizé Evensong

At it’s heart, Taizé is a simple, meditative form of worship, calling us to dwell deeply on Christ's presence around and within us making it particularly well suited for an Evensong service.

Combined with times of prayer, contemplative readings and a short talk, this service is both moving and restive, the perfect way to prepare for the week ahead.

Monday 7 July at 11am

Dwelling in the Word

Everyone is welcome to attend Dwelling in the Word which is held once a month in the church library. Starting at 11am we meet for about an hour and a quarter, to read a short passage of scripture. For more information click here.

Starting 7 July

International Organ Festival

The 33rd St Albans International Organ Festival and Competitions will take place from 7 to 19 July 2025. The Festival celebrates the organ and so much more, with exhilarating music and inspirational performers. Several events will take place at St Peter's Church throughout the Festival, as well as at St Albans Cathedral and at venues in London.

Letters to Forever

For three weeks, St Peter's Church will host over 200 personal letters—each written in moments of grief and reflection—reimagined as visual installations, soundscapes, scent pieces, video works, and live performances. Curated and led by Natalia Millman and supported by Arts Council England, this exhibition offers a thoughtful and creative exploration of loss, love, and resilience.

About Us

Our church has long been a place of hospitality as one the city’s ancient gateway churches and people have worshipped here for over a thousand years.

Today we continue to offer a welcome to many from across the city and surrounding area, whether drawn by the quality of our music and choral tradition, our provision for children and young families, our offering of diverse opportunities for worship, prayer and learning, the strong sense of community we seek to foster - or for many other reasons. Our vision is “everyone is included, loving and generous service is celebrated, faith is nurtured and developed, and everyone is inspired to reach their God-given potential”. If you would like to join us for any of our services or midweek activities, we hope you will feel at home, make new friends, and most important of all, be enabled to grow in friendship with God.

We are part of the Church of England, in the Diocese of St Albans, and we have a special relationship with Marlborough Road Methodist Church, with whom we celebrate key services during the year.
