Nativity of Our Lord Parish was established as a Mission Parish from Blessed Sacrament in 1937. Because of the growth of the islands area, a need for a new church was recognized. In 1989, permission to build St. Peter the Apostle Church on the grounds adjacent to the school on Wilmington Island was given by Bishop Raymond Lessard. St. Peter the Apostle Church was dedicated on October 14, 1990. On August 4, 1993, Bishop Lessard officially established St. Peter the Apostle as a new parish independent from Nativity of Our Lord Parish. It was at this time that the school name was changed to St. Peter the Apostle School.
In the spring of 1998 a new parish office was dedicated. This building houses the pastor and parochial vicar's office as well as the administrative offices. To better meet the needs of the growing school enrollment, a new building was dedicated in January of 2001. This building includes eight classrooms, a media center, a computer lab and a science lab. Future plans for St. Peter the Apostle include a new parish center, at least two new classrooms and a teachers' lounge.
Saint Peter the Apostle Parish is a Roman Catholic community of faith guided by the Eucharist and the Word of God. Our Mission is to serve God, to seek holiness through liturgy and prayer, to live daily, to educate and to evangelize the message of Jesus Christ by reaching out to the larger community through compassion, friendship and service.
