We welcome all who are visiting us for worship on this Holy
Nativity season. 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.

Hebb’s Food Bank Challenge:
The challenge is- every time you go grocery shopping this month that you buy
one item each time for the Fredericton Food Bank – and then bring it to
Church for an offering which will be delivered to our Food Bank. Technically,
this is called an “alms” offering!
St Peter’s Vestry,
on behalf of the Congregation, has made a $100.00 donation to both the
Community Kitchen and the Food Bank.
