"Bears all things
Believes all things
Hopes all things
Endures all things
LOVE never fails."
1 Corinthians 13: 7-8
St Peter's Church has a tradition of ministry and care.
"I give you a new commandment:
love one another.
Just as I have loved you,
you also must love one another.
By this love you have for one
Another everyone will know
that you are my disciples."
John 13:34
We show our love in many ways:
Supporting one another in the church and in outreach in the
community through caring, sharing and prayer.
