Special tasks at St.Peter's:

Sidesperson
We have a rota of Sidesmen and Women who exercise a vital ministry of welcome before and after services, as they give out hymn books and collect them in again at the end. Please contact Mrs. Pat Newman

Choir
The choir practices on Friday evenings and then sings at the 10am and 6.30pm services on Sunday. Admission to the choir is by audition. Please contact Mr. Graham Stockwell for details

Servers
Being a server is a very important role in the worship of the church. If you would like to become a server, please let us know. Full training will be given! Please contact Mrs Hilary Wright for details.

Readers
Although it is usual for the Deacon to read the Gospel readings, all other readings, the Epistle in the morning and the two lessons in the evening, are always read by a lay member of the congregation. We have a rota of readers, but are always interested in welcoming new people onto the rota. Please contact Mr.Nigel for details.

Intercessors
Leading the prayers in the 10am Eucharist is a very important ministry. Those leading the prayers are encouraged to write their own prayers (the clergy can help!) if they wish, but usually the prayers are written by the clergy and then read by someone from the congregation. Again, we would like to increase the number of people on the rota. Please contact Mrs. Pat Southgate for details.

Coffee
We now serve refreshments at the end of every 10am Sunday Service. If you could help on an occasional basis we would much appreciate it. Please contact Mrs. Jane Winter for details

Flowers
The flower arrangers meet every Friday morning to decorate the church for the coming week. New helpers are always welcome. Please contact Mrs Elaine Weber for details

Cleaners
We are fortunate in all the hard work Harold has put in in looking after the interior of the church building, but he must now retire and we are looking for extra help. Some people take on their own corner of the church which they dust and clean on a regular basis. Could you help in this way? Please contact Mrs. Lynette Hilton for details

Guardians
It is now our policy to try and open St.Peters every morning of the week from Monday to Friday, so that members of the community and passers by can come in and be quiet or pray. We can only do this if we have people on duty while the church is unlocked. If you could help in this way we would be happy to let you know what is involved. Please contact Mrs. Pat Southgate for details

Gardeners
If you prefer the fresh air of the outdoors, you might like to take on a bit of the churchyard or one of the tasks of mowing or strimming. Please contact Mr. Roger Bayldon for details.
