What to Know Before Visiting The Two Saints Ministry as a First-Time Guest

Updated

The Two Saints Ministry is a progressive, inclusive Anglican community in Victoria, British Columbia, made up of two locations: St. Peter in Lakehill and St. David by-the-Sea in Cordova Bay. If you are planning a first visit, the main service to know about is Sunday worship at 10:00 am at St. Peter's, Lakehill, which is also live-streamed. The website notes there are some exceptions to this schedule, with details under its "Worship" section, so it is worth checking that page before you go. The site also has an "I'm New Here" page with helpful information for visitors.

The Two Locations

The Two Saints Ministry describes itself as "one community, two locations." Both are in Victoria, BC:

Location Area
St. Peter Lakehill
St. David by-the-Sea Cordova Bay

Sunday worship at 10:00 am is listed at St. Peter's, Lakehill. The website provides a separate location information page if you need directions or want to understand how the two sites relate to one another.

Service Times and the Live Stream

  • Sunday worship: 10:00 am at St. Peter's, Lakehill
  • Live stream: Available for those who cannot attend in person — the site directs visitors to a "Live Stream" tab
  • Exceptions: The site notes "some exceptions" to the Sunday schedule, with details under "Worship"

If you are deciding whether to attend in person or watch online first, the live stream is a low-pressure way to see what a service is like before visiting.
