The St Peter's Anglican Church, Bruce Rock is in the Parish of Bruce Rock and the Diocese of Perth. The wooden part of the building was an old church building from the minefields, relocated and opened here in 1922. The brick extension was added in 1929. A Vietnam Veterans memorial window was dedicated in 2000. Since 2000, an annual reunion memorial service is held on the first Saturday of each November. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 26/5/2024.
