With a donation of land by Jonathan Miller and construction and labor costs paid by the East Side Chapel Association, the small East Side Chapel came into being. On June 6, 1881, the first service was held in the Chapel; it was the funeral of Miller's 11 year old daughter, Katie. The building was dedicated two months later, on August 7, 1881.

The Chapel became affiliated with St. Luke's under the direction of Rev. Oscar Treder and the name of the Chapel was changed to St. Peter's Chapel.

Summer services at St. Peter'sChapel are held 6:00 pm on Saturdays from Memorial Day to Labor Day, consisting of Holy Eucharist with hymns. St. Peter's Chapel is located at 463 Old Stone Highway, Springs
