Summary
| Description |
English: St. Peter’s Protestant Episcopal Church was founded on November 9th, 1770 and was incorporated April 28th, 1835. It’s a colonial parish being the last Anglican Church founded in New Jersey before the Revolutionary War, the last of twenty. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places by the United States Department of Interior on August 11, 1977.
The early history is interesting and reflects the demographic realities of this part of historic King’s Highway. Though founded as a chapel of the Church of England, the early church in Berkeley was home to Anglicans, Methodists and Quakers. It was not until later that a conscious decision was made by the then “managers” to become an Episcopal Parish. One remarkable feature is St. Peter’s has managed in its long history to boast of only twenty two ministers (vicars & rectors) which attests to its innate stability and ability to adapt to the changing makeup of the Episcopal Church. It continues to be home to All Sorts and Conditions of Persons doing the work of ministry in the County of Gloucester. |
