From the Vicar of St Peter's.

We enter a new Church Year with our celebrations of Advent and Christmas - and a great deal has happened this year too - my tenth year as Vicar of St Peter's. After a period of discussion, review and consultation the Archbishop of Melbourne has offered me an extension of tenure for 5 more years, which I have accepted.

It will be five years of movement and chance as we take St Peter's into a future with hope and with courage for our place in this community and our Diocese.

Our recent Parish Fete raised a record amount for us - showing what we can do when we really join together and get behind a project. The recent "Back to Church" Sunday was a great and happy success, showing us what we can do when we stat inviting people to join us and not just welcome those who come - and we are a very welcoming church. Our family services have proved a great success attracting parents and young children to worship - now we need to look at the interior of the church - and how we worship, and how it says a lot about our worship. These will be exciting years ahead for St Peters. We invite you to join us for Christmas, and to make this Church your place of worship.

If we can help in any way, please feel free to contact the Vicar through the Church Office.

Our regular Sunday Services of 8am and 10am continue throughout the year (including January) as does the weekly Eucharist on Wednesdays at 10.00am.

We invite you to join with us, to visit with us, and hopefully to make St Peter's your place of spiritual journeying and growth in faith, your place of worship and fellowship.
