We welcome all who are worshipping with us at this Holy Season of pre-Lent - the Sundays with the funny names, i.e., Septuagesima, Sexagesima and Quinquagesima - see this month’s TAP for details. St Peter's is a specifically Prayer Book Parish theologically as well as liturgically. What this means is that traditional liturgy (services) are the worshipping expression of normative Anglican, (i.e., of the Anglican Communion) belief. We hope that you find your time in our midst spiritually refreshing and beneficial.
