Preteen Dance
Preteen Dance
St. Peter's has been happy to be able to bring back the Preteen Dance, hosted on the last Friday of the month. The music is loud as is the crowd, but a lot of good fun is being had. The dance goes from 7-9 PM, and is open to preteens ages 8-12. There is a covercharge of $5, as well as a canteen selling drinks and snacks. The next date for the dance is March 31st.
Italian Night
Come experience an evening in Italy. We are doing an Italian Night fundraiser. Your evening will start with a wine tasting as you arrive in "Italy". Enjoy a delicious three-course meal in an Italian Atmosphere. Departure is 5:30 pm on April 14th & 15th. Be sure to pick up your personal passport and boarding pass from Alain or Rick for $45.00 per person. Tickets are limited.
Parish Office
The office is open:
Monday 3pm until 6pm

Donating to St. Peters
If you'd like to make a donation to the parish, we are set up to receive donations by e-transfer (stpeterschurch@ns.sympatico.ca)! Simply include the following information in your e-transfer: Your full name and envelope number, or mailing address if you don't have an envelope number. In this way, you can receive a year-end tax receipt for your donation. This is a great way to make occasional or one-time donations.
Parish Council
Parish Council currently meets on the 3rd Tuesday of the month (with the exception of July & August) to discuss parish business. These meetings are open to any member of the congregation to attend, to keep up with what happens in our parish. Unless you are a member of the Parish Council, however, you would not have a vote. If you do attend, we would ask that you remain respectful and quiet during the meeting. If you would like to speak at the meeting, please approach a member of council, preferably the Parish Council Secretary before the meeting to be added to the agenda. Minutes of the meetings will be made available online, and on paper by request from the office.
Prayer Shawls
Prayer Shawls
We have a prayer shawl ministry in the parish, and always welcome new shawls! For those who don't know, a prayer shawl is given to a person in need (physically, mentally, spiritually, etc) as a reminder that they are loved, and that they are being prayed for. Our goal is to have some available to give out, whenever needed. When shawls are available, you’re welcome to take them for someone you know who is in need. If you knit or crochet, you’re welcome to make shawls in any pattern/colour you see fit. Just remember that the intention of these is that they would be big enough for people to wrap around themselves, as a comfort. We have some patterns available (just ask!) if you would like some guidance, or there are tonnes of patterns available online.
Sunday School
Sunday School
Our Sunday School has restarted for the fall, and is back in full swing! It begins at 10:15 AM, and runs during the service. If you haven't registered your child yet, it's not too late. Please reach out to Sunday School Superintendent Sandi Somerton for more information.
