  • St Peter's, Eastern Hill is the Anglican parish church of the City of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. The parish is in the Anglican Diocese of Melbourne and dates from 1847. The letters patent of Queen Victoria declaring the city status of Melbourne were read on the steps of St Peter's in 1848. The parish is well-known as belonging to the Anglo-Catholic or High Church tradition. St Peter's central position in Melbourne means it is able to extend a number of ministries from the parish including a hospital chaplain, university chaplain and parliamentary chaplain. The church is also the location of a breakfast program for Melbourne's inner-city homeless. St Peter's hosted the first meeting of Critical Mass on 25 July 2008. This group aims to draw young people from across the Melbourne diocese to engage in common prayer, share in the Eucharist and develop a support base for Anglican young adults, particularly those in the Catholic tradition.
