We welcome Archdeacon Geoff Hall to St Peter’s as our celebrant and preacher this day.

Fr Hebb is away on vacation to NS this week from Sat July 19 to Sat July 26 inclusive. Fr Ian Wetmore is covering in case of emergencies.

The Parish’s last Vestry Meeting determined that the Congregation should be asked afresh to consider switching to e-offering. The reason for this appeal is absences due to the seasonal summer downturn in attendance coupled with the obvious effect of vacations. E-offering makes weekly or monthly giving automatic and not a function of attendance or remembrance to fully ‘catch-up’. Please do give the matter serious thought! Forms can be found at the rear!
We welcome all who are worshipping with us on this Trinity Season. 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.
