Welcome to the Cathedral!

Welcome to the Cathedral Church of St. Peter!

For over 100 years, St. Peter’s has stood at the heart of downtown St. Petersburg as a house of prayer for all people. With stained glass that tells our sacred story and doors that open wide to the city, we are a place where beauty, belonging, and service come together in Christ’s name.

As the Cathedral of the Diocese of Southwest Florida, we serve not only our parishioners but also the wider Church and the city we love. Our common life together is shaped by hospitality, worship, compassion, justice and the conviction that faith is meant to be lived out in the world.

Whether you’re drawn by the power of music, the depth of our liturgy, or a longing for community, you’ll find that St. Peter’s is a spiritual home for people of every background, story, and experience—welcomed with dignity, compassion, and grace.

While our website can familiarize you with the scope of our ministries, the best way to experience St. Peter’s is to "come and see."

As St. Benedict taught, “Let all guests who arrive be received like Christ.” So come — come with your questions, your burdens, your curiosity or your joy.

Once again, Welcome! We look forward to meeting you in person and share the beauty, warmth and spirit that define the Cathedral Church of St. Peter.

See you Sunday!

The Very Reverend Michelle Robertshaw, Provost
