Welcome to the St. Peter's UCC of Wilshire church family. We are a small, welcoming congregation located in West Lawn, one of the suburbs of Reading, in Berks County, PA.
Our church life is modeled after Jesus' commandment: "love God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength; and love your neighbor as yourself."
We hope you like what you see here. If so, contact us or stop by for a visit. Our weekly worship service starts at 10:00 AM every Sunday, and visitors are expected!
