St Peter's Festival


Due to unforeseen circumstances the St Peter's music festival is not going to be able to make a full fledged launch this year. 

However we are still going to be having our Gilbert and Sullivan evening on Saturday 5th July, thanks to the hard work of our Director of Music Anthony Roberts.

We will also be holding a Choral Evensong service on the previous weekend for the feast of St Peter and St Paul - which is of course our patronal festival. This service will take place in the afternoon early evening, probably 4.30 p.m. Sunday 29th June. Our good friends from S. George's will be coming.

It is one of those happy weekends when the St Peter's Day actually falls on the Sunday and will be my 8th anniversary at St Peter's, my 11th anniversary as a priest, and my 12th anniversary as a deacon!

In fellowship with our brothers and sisters from S. George's who are beginning a special year of celebrating the life and witness of St Paul, we will also remember St Paul - who usually gets forgotten because it is St Peter who is our patron!

The CHoir have already started practicing so make sure these dates are in your diaries!
