Episcopal in Oxford (Mississippi)
St. Peter's Episcopal Church (ECUS), 113 South 9th Street, +1 662 234-1269. Organized in 1851, this was the original seat of the first Episcopal bishop of Mississippi, making this building the pro-cathedral (i.e. preliminary cathedral) for the Episcopal Diocese of Mississippi. First resident pastor was Frederick A.P. Barnard, originally a faculty member at Ole Miss, eventually the university's chancellor and, later, president of Columbia University. The building was completed in 1860 and was the only religious structure within the town limits of Oxford to survive the burning of the town by Union troops in 1864. William Faulkner was a parishioner. Sunday services are at 7:45AM, 9:00AM, 11:00AM and 5:30PM. There is a Spanish language service at 7:00PM.
