POSSIBLE NEW WORSHIP VENTURE : KEEP PRAYING!
A small group of us have been praying and talking through some
ideas for those not presently being reached/included by St. Peter’s.
We are considering a Sunday afternoon meeting about 4.30pm in a

wisdom in the planning, that we would hear what God has in mind.
That we would raise a small, committed, united team to run such
an event. And as you pray if you feel this could be something you
could get involved with, please speak to either Tim or Sue.
