We welcome all who are worshipping with us during 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.

This bulletin is given to the glory of God and in loving memory of departed loved ones by Ross, Linda, Sarah and Benjamin Hebb.

Memorial / Thank-offering Bulletins: In order to have beautiful bulletin covers for special occasions Fr Hebb wonders if individuals would like to cover the $20.00 cost as a Thank-offering for a blessing received or as a memorial to a departed loved one. Advent and Christmas are now covered – pun intended!

The Cathedral Puppeteers, including our own Cody McKay, are going on a Mission trip to Belize in 2010. Cody needs to raise $2200.00. They will work on a school and do presentations for the children. Cody asks for your prayers and monetary support. 459-1764 or cody_b_mckay@hotmail.com

A Message from YOUR Vestry: St. Peter’s Contributions: Here at St Peter’s, as elsewhere, there is the need to increase our weekly giving so as to remain economically viable. To that end, Vestry members have accepted the challenge and each member has agreed to increase their personal weekly giving by 10%. We would invite and encourage you to join us in this undertaking. St. Peter’s has played a central role in the lives of parishioners for more than 170 years. Our ability to continue with our joint Ministry hinges on our capacity to meet mounting operating expenses and a growing capital budget. Thank you for your consideration of this important request and please feel free to discuss this with the Wardens; Bob Matthews and Mary Christie, any Vestry member or Fr. Hebb. To change your e-offering pick up the form at the rear or download it from this link: http://anglican.nb.ca/synod/finance/e_offering/e_offering_changes.pdf

Vestry News: Oct 4ths vestry meeting received some good news – last winter`s church fuel bill has been paid off! Also, the treasurer reports that folks are responding to the 10% challenge found in the paragraph above. However challenges remain. We have not yet secured a contractor for this upcoming season. Vestry has also decided on the placement of hand sanitizer in the church as well as to support Fr Hebb`s decision to temporarily switch to Morning Prayer when and if H1N1 seriously strikes our community.

As for the Church Exterior Restoration Fund everyone should have received the latest mailing – including a donations envelope and pledge card this past week! Please plan your 2009 support NOW! Remember ... our goal is $50,000.00 in total. We can reach this goal if everyone contributes and pulls together!
