Welcome to the website of St Peter's Church which meets in Newlands Avenue, Didcot.At present we are in a period of interregnum following Father Edward's departure to Chelmsford, but should you need the services of a priest you are always welcome to telephone 01235 812114 or email the priest-in-charge@stpeters-didcot.org.uk During the interregnum our services will be led mainly by our team here at St Peter’s. We are in a most fortunate position to have our own Revd Joy, Revd Ernest and Revd Josie all of whom will be presiding and preaching alongside our LLMs Fran and Jenny. We are truly thankful and pleased that they will all be leading our services throughout the interregnum. A warm welcome is still offered by all whilst we await a new appointment. You won't feel swamped by people trying to be too helpful – they respect the space we all need as well. The building is warm and welcoming too, and although it was only built in 1976 it is unmistakably a holy place, touched by God. At St Peter's we try to be at ease with God, with one another, and with ourselves. Although sometimes things can seem busy – we have lots of fantastic social events as well as our services – it's a golden rule that nobody should be asked to do things that aren't part of their calling from God. So we encourage people to be prayerful first of all, and then to respond to God's call, whatever that might be. That's the way we keep our focus on God. To find out more about what we do, click on the Information link on the left and read our last (2011/2012) Annual Review of life at St Peter's. ________________ Prayer for the Interregnum Shepherd and guardian of all souls, call to your Church and ours a priest after your own heart: one of faith and prayer, filled with the Holy Spirit; one who has vision and wisdom; one who has a true love for all people. Prepare the priest of your choice for ministry among us. Prepare us to receive them with love and joy. Guide all with responsibility for this task, especially Bishop Andrew, Hugh and Julie. We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. ____________ This website has been designed to give an overview of our life as a church. We have services and other activities for people of all ages, and the other pages give plenty of details. But the best way to experience St Peter's is to pay a visit, maybe to our 10.00am Sunday morning service when most of us gather to worship God. We look forward to welcoming you. |
