Ministry in Action

Serving our neighbors, supporting our community, and sharing God's love through compassion, care, and service.

For us ministry is more than a program — it is faith put into action.

Whether serving our local community, supporting one another in times of need, or sharing God’s love through acts of compassion, St. Peter’s ministries are at work every day, bringing faith to life and strengthening connections within our church and beyond.

Ministry of the Month

St. Peter's Military Support Ministry stays connected with members of our congregation and their families who are actively serving in the military. Through prayer, cards, notes, gift cards, and other expressions of support, we seek to remind them that they are remembered, appreciated, and loved.

​We invite you to keep our service members and their families in your prayers, join us in sending messages of encouragement, and prayerfully consider making a donation to the Military Support Fund to help sustain this important ministry.

Community Services Ministry

We reach beyond our church walls to support neighbors in need. We provide school supplies for children at local Title I schools, assist families with holiday meals and gift cards at Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter, and send cards and care packages to active-duty military personnel.

​Your support helps us share compassion, encouragement, and Christ’s love with our community.

Cold Weather Shelter

During the colder months, St. Peter’s extends Christ’s love and hospitality by opening the Son & Sand Retreat Center as a Cold Weather Shelter for individuals experiencing homelessness when severe weather conditions make it unsafe to be outdoors. This important ministry is a partnership among several local congregations known as the Ocean City Crisis Coalition.  Made possible through the dedication of caring volunteers, the shelter provides guests with a warm, safe place to spend the night, along with a home-cooked dinner and breakfast, shower facilities, laundry services, and a comfortable bed. Through this outreach, St. Peter’s and its community partners offer not only physical comfort but also dignity, compassion, and hope to those in need.
Picture
Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others,
as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms.
— 1 Peter 4:10
