Spiritual Resources

We are delighted to announce that we have Eucharist Services in the building of St Peter’s. We greatly enjoy worshipping together again, and all are very welcome!

Sundays at 10.45am: This Eucharist service follows a shortened version of the 1982 Liturgy. No congregational or choral singing is currently allowed, but hopefully it will be soon. The service is recorded to put onto YouTube to premiere at 6.30pm that evening.

Thursdays at 11am: This Eucharist Service follows a shortened Communion Service from The Scottish Prayer Book. It is all conducted by the Clergy and has no sermon or music. 

All our services that have been recorded since lockdown can be found on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHhYHVFO1hqHLPo4GtFjG_A

When attending services we ask:

• everyone wears face masks / coverings
• as the seat cushions have been removed, you are welcome to bring your own cushion. Please just remember to take it away with you again!
• if you require the use of the disabled access, please enter via the Clergy Vestry door, and ring the bell on that door when you arrive.
• all who attend are required to complete the consent form for the NHS ‘Test & Protect’. These details are kept for 21 days.
