Mid-Lent, Refreshment and Mothering Sunday, March 18th

Services this Week: Anglican Parish of St Peter, Fredericton.

March 20 Contemplative Prayer session in Church: Leader Ria Neish 7 p.m.

Today is Mothering Sunday and our Special Lenten Lessons & Meditations service at 11 a.m.

We welcome all who are visiting us for worship this Lent. You will notice that 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.
