Our Sunday services start at 10.00 am.

All-Age Communion on the 1st Sunday of the month

We have a creche (Pebbles), Sunday School (Rocks) and a youth group (SPITFLY - St Peter's-In-The-Forest Local Youth).

There is a mid-week communion service on Tuesday mornings at 9.30 am

There is a prayer box at Peterhouse; if you'd like us to pray for someone, please put a prayer request into the box and a member of the team will collect them weekly.  Prayers for those people will be said on a Tuesday morning at the 9.30 am communion service.

Collect, readings and prayers for Sunday 22nd August

COLLECT

Almighty and everlasting God,
you are always more ready to hear than we to pray
and to give more than either we desire or deserve:
pour down upon us the abundance of your mercy,
forgiving those things of which our conscience is afraid
and giving us those good things which we are not worthy to ask
but through the merits and mediation of Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,
one God, now and for ever. Amen.


Old Testament reading:    Isaiah 58:9b-14

New Testament reading:  Hebrews 12:18-29

GOSPEL READING:             Luke 13:10-17

PRAYER AFTER COMMUNION  

God of all mercy,
in this eucharist you have set aside our sins
and given us your healing:
grant that we who are made whole in Christ
may bring tht healing to this broken world,
in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
