ST PETERS CHURCH
Church Warden: Mr David Lafferty Tel:Email: ds.lafferty@yahoo.co.uk Tel: 01536 200175
St Peters is a warm-natured friendly Church, meeting in a historic building in the village of Stanion. It serves the people of Stanion and nearby Little Stanion. The building is currently in the planning process of a re-ordering, in order to provide toilet and servery faciities, as well as better heating and a more flexible space. St Peters is a growing congregation. See below for our regular services and special services and events.
Regular Services
First Sunday every month @ 11am - Holy Communion Service using a contemporary Anglican Liturgy (Common Worship) with a variety of music and hymns/songs. (The service is also suitable for those who do not wish to take Communion. You may either come forward to receive a simple blessing, or remain in your seat as the bread and wine is shared, as some do). Good refreshments are served too.
Third Sunday every month @ 11.30 am - All Ages Service in a very relaxed style. Music, story, hymns/songs, crafts and any other activities as relevant. 'Respectful fun with a meaning' is one way the service has been described and 'this really is suitable for all ages' is another comment. There is a real community feel about this service, and whatever age or level of faith you will be given a very warm welcome. Complementary refreshments served.
Fifth Sunday in a month - As advertised. Whenever there is a fifth Sunday in the month we join with our other local Churches for worship. This varies in content and venue (e.g. we have done summer ones outdoors).
