 I always enjoy welcoming people to St Peter's Church in Didcot. I arrived here as the new parish priest in 2004, and I’ve quickly discovered that the people are very open and welcoming. But I've never felt 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.
 Inside St Peter's 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. I look forward to welcoming you myself. p.s.

A leaflet is available, giving details of all the special services and activities at St Peter's during Lent. These include a day-time Friday Lent Group and a Wednesday evening Fellowship Group. There are also suggestions for books to read and ideas for having a 'Spiritual MOT'. If you don't have the leaflet please contact Jenny Loder for a copy. Lent is a time when some Christians make a sacramental confession. If you would like to know more about this, please take a copy of the leaflet in church or have a word with Fr Edward or Fr James. |
