Statorius Peter, (Lat. Stoinius, Polon. Stoienski,) the third of that name, was the son of P. Statorius, Jun., and brother of John. He entered as a student at Altorf with his brother Christopher, about the time that Socinianism began to obtain a footing there. In the year 1609, at the Synod of Lublin, he was sent as an assistant to Andrew Lubieniecius, Pastor of the Church at Hoyszcze ; and in the year following was ordained, and appointed Minister of the Church at Czerniechow, in Volhynia. On the 27^th of September, 1616, he and John Lunkwitz were commissioned, by the Church of Racow, to go to Altorf, and request that the Unitarian students, who had been unwarrantably detained there as prisoners, might be set at liberty: but they arrived too late, for the young men had been already sent home to their friends, though "on conditions" which Smalcius pronounces "most unjust." (Apud Zeltn. p. 1206.) In 1642, Peter Statorius was still officiating as Minister of the Church at Czerniechow, and an assistant was granted to him ; but in 1649, at the Assembly of Raszcow, he was directed to take charge of the congregation at Babieniew, in Volhynia.
