Welcome to St Peter’s and Blessed Mary and thank you for taking a moment to read about what is happening with us over September and October.

As we move to the next stage of this unique time, we are over the Autumn going to be 're-establishing' to some good things, but also 'going onto' some new good things.

In our congregations and groups, we are going to explore in different ways 'The Way' of life that Jesus showed and that he called people to follow.

If you would like to read Revd James recent reflections about this and other things, please click here: The next stage on our journey....

With regard to our specific groups and activities, please look below, but if you have specific queries or ways in which we can perhaps help we would be pleased to hear from you.

Finally, we are very pleased to announce the appointment of Kate Smyth and Katie Harrison as our new Family, Children and Youth Workers. You can read about the appointments and more about Kate and Katie here: Announcement - Kate and Katie
