Services

We currently have 5 regular church services:

 

8 a.m. Book of Common Prayer Holy Communion

We meet every Sunday in the choir stalls. There is no sermon at this service but we do observe a short period of silence between the Apostle’s Creed and Intercessions. This service lasts 30 minutes. No collection is taken but there is an offertory plate in which gifts can be placed. Whist this is a traditional service with Elizabethan language all are welcome and many find it a very comforting and safe place.

10 a.m. Common Worship Eucharist

We meet every Sunday except for the 3rd Sunday of the month. At this service we sing traditional hymns and share the Eucharist together. There is a sermon preached based upon the set lectionary and formal intercessions are offered. The music at this service is led by the organ and on the 1st Sunday of the month is accompanied by a robed choir. 
During this service there is opportunity for the children to attend activities in the Prayer Room. After the service all are encouraged to stay behind afterwards for tea, coffee and biscuits.  There is a collection taken during this service.

10 a.m. Family Service  

The Family Service is held every 3rd Sunday of the month.

Light warm refreshments are served before the service starts.

This is an informal service which is led musically by the St. Peter’s Church Band which consists of musicians of all abilities and ages. The topic of each service tends to be themed based and all are welcome!

This is a service to which those who are planning to have their children baptised are invited to attend.
