The vestry have met several times lately to talk about the future of St Peter's. We are approximately £200 short every month of what we need to maintain a full time stipendiary priest. With very little reserves in the bank it has become obvious that we need to start thinking about all the alternatives.
Members of the vestry are taking it in turns to lead a time of prayer about this specific issue each Sunday after the 10.30 service. This time of prayer is open to everyone and we hope will provide some answers as to the way forward for our church. The vestry are writing to the Bishop to ask for his input and will be writing to each member of the congregation in the next wee while to inform them of the situation.
The vestry would very much appreciate your prayer support at this time as we look to God for direction and guidance.
