As we approach the annual Vestry Meeting next month, the Vestry List which includes the names of all parishioners who are eligible to vote at the Vestry Meeting will be posted in the Hall on Sunday, February 1, 2026.

An email will be sent to all Parishioners this week to provide all the necessary details.

Please note that the Vestry Meeting this year is Saturday, February 21, 2026 at 2:00 PM in the Church.

Our food cupboard in the hall is working well with neighbours in need making good use of it.

However we are getting low on some supplies, particularly canned tomatoes, fruit and vegetables, also canned salmon and soup. If anyone could supply some of the above it would be very much appreciated.

This December financial update is the latest approved report from the January council meeting. Find the most recent meeting minutes from January in the church hall near the front door in a binder labelled "PARISH COUNCIL MINUTES" or ask Sara in the office.

This Christmas Eve, St Peter’s was blessed to receive a large bequest ($112,000) from the Estate of Merrion Harrison. Merrion was a long-time member of our congregation and  is fondly remembered for her dedication to the church as well as her great love of dogs and interest in the outdoors, skiing and tennis. A memoir of her life, which was compiled by her friend Sheelane, can be read in our parish library.  

The arrival of Merrion’s generous gift is timely as it is our intention to use a portion of the bequest this spring to refurbish the rectory in time for the arrival of a new Rector.  The balance of funds will be invested in a fund to be used for St Peter’s future capital needs.   

St Peter’s is seeking a permanent part time (14 hrs/week) Administrative Assistant to start mid March, 2026.

The Administrative Assistant’s role is to assist with the administration of the church. Reporting to the incumbent priest, they will work with the parish council, bookkeeper, volunteers and community partners to serve the church and the local community.

There will be no Bible Study this Monday, February 2, as Ron and Mickey are away. It will resume as usual on February 9.
