The theme for the weekend will be ‘Meeting Jesus afresh’ and Canon Roger Matthews will be the speaker. Roger is the Director of Mission and Ministry for the Diocese of Chelmsford.
A children’s programme is planned too.

A Church Hall Wedding Reception

ImageFor the first time for many years the Church Hall was used to host a wedding reception this weekend. Undaunted by the challenges of preparing the Hall for such an event the couple, Andrew and Susannah,  with the help many friends transformed the Hall into a bright, friendly and welcoming venue for over 100 guests. Following their marriage earlier in the afternoon at Bluecoat School Chapel Andy and Susie arrived at the Hall to enjoy a wonderful evening. This was a really special occasion (marred only by the fact that I never took a photo of the couple in the Hall!) and hopefully St Peter’s can host similar events in the future.

A Wedding at St Peter's?
ImageRecent changes in the law by the "Church of England Marriage Measure 2008 Act" have significantly changed the criteria governing in which parish church you can be married. The act now allows more freedom in the choice of where couples may marry and recognises that many couples have previously been prohibited from celebrating their marriage at what they consider their home church. For more details you can read more on our "Wedding" page or speak to a member of the clergy or the Verger

Whilst waiting to play at the church dance that night, John Lennon and the other members of the Quarrymen Skiffle Group were introduced to the young Paul McCartney by a mutual friend.
