Once the Only Church in Tacoma

St Peter's Episcopal Church was not only the first church in Tacoma and the Episcopal Mother Church, it was also the first site for worship services organized by Baptist, Congregationalists, Disciples of Christ, Methodists, Presbyterians, Lutherans, and Roman Catholics. Thus, people of all denominations met there and the church became the center of religious, social, and community activity in early Tacoma. - NRHP
