Rectors

Rectors

In 2008, the women of St. Peter’s began work on the St. Peter’s History Project.  Our goal is to create and expand our display of historic photographs: former rectors, buildings, and Carson City as we have grown over 145 years together.   This is a work in progress.   Here is a part of our history in photographs of former rectors.
