Prayer & Leadership: Thoughts from St. Peter's Leaders

Several parishioners spoke over a number of Sundays in May to describe why they volunteer in their chosen roles. As we prayerfully consider our future leaders at St. Peter's, Vicki Boswell's treasurer's talk is reproduced on our website for your consideration.

Remembering Doug Porter

Remembering Doug Porter

Thank You

Doug’s sister, Audrey, and I would like to thank everyone who shared in our last farewell to Doug Wednesday, May 20. You made it a memorable occasion for us. We would like to especially thank Rev. Alan for preparing and leading the service; Jim who helped prepare the slide presentation when I was too busy to learn myself; Neil who played the piano with very little advance notice and created a beautiful melody for Doug’s hymn; and Jonathan who recorded the service for those who were unable to attend;
and Yvonne and her “staff” who prepared the delectable refreshments following the service.
 
Blessings,
Catherine

Our church food shelf supplies are running very low, and we need your help to feed local families. Every single donation makes a direct difference to a neighbour in need.

83,532 families are served,
167,063 hours of labour are saved daily,
and 1,836 more kids attend school daily because of toilets.

Flowers for the Sanctuary

Flowers for the Sanctuary

A small group has been created to provide flowers for the sanctuary every week. We would be delighted to have a couple of more people join us in this flower ministry. Please speak to Yvonne Oldaker or Linda Hughes if you're interested. 
 
Donations may also be made to cover the cost of flowers on future Sundays for an important personal celebration or in memory of a loved one. A sign up book will be placed in the entrance to the church, to indicate which Sunday you'd like to pay for flowers and in whose memory they are given.
 
Please place the money in the offertory plate in an envelope with your name and indicate it is for flowers. This will be added to your year-end tax receipt.  If you would prefer to provide your own flowers please speak to a member of the flower group.
