The Stations of the Cross is an ancient devotion which allows participants to walk with Jesus to the Cross and is an especially appropriate discipline for the season of Lent.  The middle school boys created a NEW Stations of the Cross in the southwest corner of the Taproots property.  Christened the Via Dolorosa, it shares the same name with the actual walk of Jesus from the Jerusalem Temple to The Cross at Gologotha.

Any individual or group can walk the Stations at any time using the guidebooks found in one of the mailboxes at the beginning or end of the Stations (Map). If you have questions about the Stations or would like instruction, contact Fr. Petty at mpetty@saint-peters.net.  The devotion takes about 25 minutes to complete.

Download the Walking the Stations of the Cross guidebook (PDF - 801k) and follow along the service at your own pace.

    St. Peter's Anglican Church
    Tallahassee, Florida

    St. Peter’s Anglican Church is a member of the world-wide Anglican Communion and is a founding church in the Anglican Church in North America. St. Peter’s was begun on October 9, 2005, when a group of Episcopalians chose to follow God’s lead to separate from the Episcopal Church in America because of its severely diminished respect for the role of Holy Scripture in the life of the Church, and its deeply compromised witness to the Gospel.

    While we are not biblical literalists or fundamentalists, we are Christians in the classical tradition of Anglicanism, taking seriously both the authority of Holy Scripture, and the uniqueness of the person of Christ. We are, therefore, a new Church in a very old tradition. It is the call of St. Peter’s to seek with love and humility to witness to the hope and joy found only in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

    We have two services of worship in traditional form, and a third service, true to the Prayer Book but more contemporary in style. We place a high priority on Bible study, youth, children’s, and college and young adult ministries, and mission. The people who have formed this church have been so clear in their convictions that they have been willing to uproot their families, sacrifice their comforts, and risk for the sake of the Gospel of our Lord.

    Our current location, while wonderful in many ways, is temporary. We have already secured land on Thomasville Road north of Interstate 10 and are planning buildings for the future. Being a new church, our doors are wide open to all who love God, take seriously the truth of His Word, and enjoy the rich tradition of classical Anglicanism. We are a warm and welcoming parish and would love to have you visit.

Prayer for the Building of St. Peter's Anglican Church

Almighty God and Father,

The Heavens cannot contain you, yet you are pleased to dwell in our midst. Accept our desire to build for you a dwelling place to the honor of your Name and for the benefit of your people.

We have journeyed into this wilderness to build our future on the solid rock of the Gospel of Christ. We depend fully on your guidance, inspiration, and grace in building a church that will be a symbol of your Presence, a vessel of your Truth, and a witness to your Love from generation to generation.

Bless our efforts, O Lord! Through them, may those who have ears to hear know the good News of Jesus Christ our Savior. We offer this prayer to you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Amen.

As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother, Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. "Come, follow me," Jesus said "and I will make you fishers of men." At once they left their nets and followed him. (Matthew 4:18-19)
Jesus said, "Take courage. Don't be afraid." Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. (Matthew 14:27,29)
