EDITORS COMMENTS
St. Peters Church, St. George's, Bermuda - The Oldest in Bermuda (circa 1930s) This evocative photograph captures the historic St. Peters Church in St. George's, Bermuda, as it appeared in the 1930s. Established in 1612, St. Peters is the oldest Anglican parish and church in continuous use in the western hemisphere, making it a significant piece of both Bermudan and British colonial history. The image shows the church's distinctive whitewashed walls, with its red-tiled roof and tall, pointed spire reaching towards the clear blue sky. The churchyard, filled with mature trees and lush greenery, adds to the serene and peaceful atmosphere. The church's bell tower can be seen in the background, a reminder of the important role that St. Peters played as a gathering place for the local community. As the congregation leaves the church after a service, they can be seen milling about in the churchyard, dressed in their Sunday best. The women wear elegant hats and dresses, while the men don suits and ties. The children, dressed in their Sunday clothes, play and laugh, adding a sense of joy and vitality to the scene. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the lives of the people of St. George's during the 1930s. The image is a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage that St. Peters Church holds, not just for the people of Bermuda, but for the wider world as well.
