Welcome to the Saint Peter Community of Faith
As Pastor of Saint Peter Parish in Danbury, Connecticut, it is my delight to welcome you to our website. I hope that your visit will give you a glimpse into the life or our Parish and our celebration of our Catholic Faith. St. Peter Parish, located in the center of downtown Danbury, is the third oldest parish in the Diocese of Bridgeport. Established in 1851 to serve a growing Irish immigrant population, the Parish today is home for worship and spiritual enhancement for people of many ethnic backgrounds who are united by one Faith and one Baptism. If you are searching for a spiritual home, I invite you to come and worship with us. Join us in our common journey to a life in closer communion with our Lord Jesus. The website is also purposed to provide you with information about formation in the Faith for children and adults, the celebration of Sacraments and outreach services to support our neighbors. Again, welcome to St. Peter Parish and God bless you with His peace. Sincerely yours in Christ, Querido amigo en Cristo: Como párroco de la Parroquia de San Pedro en Danbury, Connecticut, le doy mi bienvenida llena de gozo a nuestro hogar en internet. Espero que su visita le permitirá dar una mirada en la vida de nuestra Parroquia y en la celebración de nuestra fe católica. San Pedro, situada en el centro de Danbury, es la tercera en orden de antigüedad de la Diócesis de Bridgeport. Fue establecida en 1851 para servir a la creciente población de inmigrantes irlandeses. La parroquia es hoy el hogar de celebración y crecimiento espiritual para personas con diferentes raíces étnicas que están unidas por la misma fe y el mismo bautismo. Si está buscando un hogar espiritual, le invito a que venga y celebre con nosotros. Únase a nuestro camino común para una vida en fuerte comunión con nuestro Señor Jesús. Este hogar en internet también tiene el propósito de ofrecerle información sobre la formación de la fe para niños y adultos, la celebración de los sacramentos y nuestra red de apoyos a nuestros vecinos. Sea, otra vez, bienvenido a la Parroquia de San Pedro y que Dios le bendiga con su paz. Sinceramente suyo en Cristo, Fr. Gregg D. Mecca
