Chamber. St. Peter’s Episcopal Church mission is to invite, support, and encounter.

“The installation of our solar panel system is estimated to generate 88,700 kilowatt hours per year.
According to the EPA, this amount of kilowatt hours saved is equivalent to greenhouse gas emissions
from 130,000 gas powered vehicles, or CO2 emitted from over 4.8 million smart phones being
charged, or carbon sequestered by 51.3 acres of U.S. forests” – Bob Kerr, Chairman of Solar Panel
Committee, St. Peter’s Episcopal Church
As a faith community, St. Peter’s Episcopal Church believes we are called to model, promote good
kinship, care for, and protect God’s creation. The installation of solar panels at St. Peter’s is a step
toward moving this faith toward action in a meaningful display and commitment to our planet and
community.
