Life at St. Peter's, Addingham

Life at St. Peter's

This ancient site of Christian worship, both building and grounds, are worth a visit - and you will find a warm welcome awaits you here. Besides our services of worship, strands of life here that you may like to know about include:

CHOIR: We sing at all Sunday services, and practice together on alternate Friday evenings at 7.30 p.m. - all singers are welcomed with open arms! Anne is our Choirmistress.

FOSPA TEAS: Friends of St. Peter's Addingham (us!) serve teas here on Sundays from May to end September from 2.00 pm until 5.00 pm - a warm welcome, and a lovely place for an outing for all the family. Now in our 27th year - and we keep getting better! Date for 2007 : 27th May to 7th October

BELLRINGERS: we have 6 bells, and an enthusiastic all-age band of ringers - Betty is our Tower Captain. We practice at 7.30 p.m. on Wednesdays jointly with Ilkley All Saints' ringers (1st, 3rd and 5th Wednesdays of the month at All Saints', Ilkley; 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of the month at St. Peter's)
INTERCESSIONS GROUP: we meet to prepare prayers for use in our worship together.

WULFHERANS: named after the Anglo-Saxon Bishop who was here in 867! We meet on the first Tuesday of each month at 7.45 p.m. for talks and visits.

CRAFT GROUP: knitting, stitching, painting - if this is your thing, this is the place for you! Wednesdays at 2 p.m. in St. Peter's Hall.

JUNIOR CHURCH: 6.30 p.m. alternate Thursdays, for 7's and 8's in St. Peter's Hall.

JUNIOR CHURCH PLUS : 6.30 p.m. every Thursday, for 9's to 13's in St. Peter's Hall.

ST. PETER'S TODDLERS GROUP: a chance for parents to meet and chat over a coffee while the children play - meets every Thursday in the church hall from 9.30 a.m. to 11.30 a.m., with a Toddler's Service at 11 am on first Thursday of the month.
TRAIDCRAFT STALL: a chance to purchase and order fairly-traded goods, Sunday mornings after church in the hall from October to May - get all your gifts, food supplies and other sundries here, and make a real difference to the producer's lives.

Don't forget the Information Area at the back of church, where you can browse or borrow from a large collection of books, see details of the charity of the month, view the Book of Remembrance, and enter your prayer requests in the book.
