St Peter’s Catholic Church

Looking for the Catholic Church to get you out in a jiffy? This is definitely your church. I really like hitting up mass here when I am in the mood to be a good Catholic girl. I can show up for the 9:00 AM Mass and I am in my car leaving the parking lot by 9:50. That is awesome in my book.
The homilies are quick but actually have some good points. They lack in rambling which is also a big plus in my book. I also like this community. The parish actually seems to still be a community unlike the Catholic Churches of my childhood (and my young adulthood for that matter). They have blood drives and the people all seem to know each other. The sign of peace (for all you non-​Catholics that’s the weird handshake part) actually seems genuine. You just don’t get that in this religion. People don’t run out the door after communion either, and I am one of the few not lingering and talking after the mass. I love that and usually wish I could partake and didn’t have brunch plans.
Also, the church is beautiful. The stained glass windows are actually the stations of the cross and they get darker and darker as lead to the front of the church where the actual crucifixion is located. I think that’s awesome, if somewhat dark, concept. It always gives me something to stare at when I am starting to get distracted.
