Journey in Faith - RCIA
This group is for women and men who wish to
enquire about the Catholic Church or want to become Catholics, and for
those who are already Catholics but want to deepen their faith.
"Journey in Faith" meets as advertised in the Newsletter.
Administrator: John Greenrod.
Justice and Peace
The group meets on the first Tuesday of each
month at St Peter's with members from both St Peter's and Good Shepherd
and also from other Christian Churches. Anyone can join the group.
People are encouraged to come to any meeting just to see what goes on -
with no commitment to join.
The group's programme is planned to include Third World problems, human
rights issues, national issues of social justice and questions related
to international peace. The object is to act - not just to talk - and
to offer parishioners ways in which they can share their resources with
less disadvantaged people and contribute in other practical ways to
greater justice in the world. Chair: Marie Quarman.
11 Up Youth Group
The group meets in St. Peter’s Hall on
Mondays during term time 7.00 p.m. - 8.30 p.m. They focus on the eleven
to fourteen age range. The programme for the current term is usually
displayed on the St. Peter’s Church notice board. Youth leader:
Erika Dyke.
Lay Ministries
The Parish welcomes and encourages boys and
girls aged nine and above to join the team of servers at both our
churches. Contact: Deacon Cyril.
Many of our parishioners serve the community as Readers and Special
Ministers of the Eucharist. These ministries are undertaken on a rota
basis. There is a co-ordinator for each team.
Music Groups
The Music Group plays at the 10.30 Mass on the second Sunday of each month. Contact: Bob Piggott.
The Choir leads the singing of more traditional hymns, Mass parts and
psalms on the fourth Sunday of each month, and at major feasts and
special Masses. Practices are held on the third Sunday at 11.45 a.m.
(after 10.30 Mass), and on the fourth Tuesday at 8.00 p.m. We welcome
new members - no previous experience required, and no audition!
Contact: Mary Hannant or Erika Dyke
Other Parish Helpers
Apart from the above, a large number of people
are generous with their time and skills in the service of our Parish
and the wider community. These include: Church cleaners, flower
arrangers, money counters, gardeners, office helpers and many
others.
