New St. Peters AddressAs July 1, 2026 fast approaches, and Francis and his family arrive to take up residence in the Rectory, they need a unique address to ensure that only their personal mail is delivered to the house.
Accordingly, arrangements have been made with the Town to assign a unique address to each of our three buildings: the Church House is 218A, the Church is 218B and the Hall is 218C.
The Hall address (218C) is already posted along with a locking mailbox at the main door. Canada Post has made all of the necessary changes and mail addressed to 218 Church Street will automatically be redirected to 218C Church Street (Hall/Office) free of charge for one year. The new delivery comes into effect on March 17, 2026.

Flowers for the SanctuaryA small group has been created to provide flowers for the sanctuary every week, starting on Easter Sunday. We would be delighted to have a couple more people join us in this flower ministry. Please speak to Yvonne Oldaker or Linda Hughes if you're interested.
Donations to help cover the cost of Easter flowers will be gratefully received.
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.
