Denomination: Roman Catholic
We all welcome you to your new parish family! We hope you will enjoy joining us at St. Peter’s and invite you to be an active part of our community. We would like to meet you and make you feel welcome in the parish, so please introduce yourselves to our Pastor, Father Jack Herklotz, or call us at 604-522-4611 to set up an appointment. You can see our mass schedule to the right and all are welcome to attend.
Registration forms are at the back of the church and we would appreciate you taking the time to fill one out. If you are interested in joining, helping out or just wanting to know more about our parish groups please call the Parish Office.
Fr. Leon Fouquet OMI the founder of the Parish and a Professor of Theology arrived in 1860 and after two months of searching in the Fraser Valley and the Okanagan chose New Westminster for a site for a new mission, with Hope as an outpost. In 1934, after the old church on Blackwood Street was badly damaged by a gale in October, St. Patrick Hall (later Dontenwill Hall) was used as a church. The first Mass was celebrated in the new church on 4th Street and Royal Avenue on Palm Sunday April 2nd 1939. Since the arrival in 1860 of Fr. Fouquet, many Oblate priests and brothers have faithfully served the parish as pastors, chaplains, teachers, counsellors, sacristans, builders, plumbers, bookkeepers, cooks and gardeners.
We remain today under the spiritual direction of the Oblates of Mary Immaculate.
