St. Peter Catholic Church in Kirkwood has been blessed by Almighty God with a long and proud history. Beginning with a few families and a small wooden church in 1832, our parish has changed, grown, and prospered over the years. Today, St. Peter Parish is home for over 1900 families and our parish Church is an essential part of downtown Kirkwood, Missouri. Many faithful priests and parishioners have helped our parish to become well-known for its uplifting liturgy, welcoming community, living stewardship, and loving service and outreach.
