Welcome
to St Peter’s website. We are a church committed to showing the love of God in
service to the local community, in worship and prayer, and in care for one
another.
As members of the worldwide
Anglican church, rooted here in Birmingham, we are also dedicated to sharing in
friendship and support fellow Christians in Churches Together in Hall Green.
Our hope is that we become
more and more a church at the heart of our local community, meeting needs in
God’s name, and proclaiming his kingdom of love, forgiveness, healing, justice
and peace. We expect to see signs of that kingdom in many different people and
places.
We are not perfect, just
travellers on the road hoping to do our best!
We hope you find the
information you are looking for. Please
don’t hesitate to get in touch.
Martin Stephenson, Vicar

At the Annual Parochial Church Meeting

Jefferies, Sonia Miller, Edward Tongue and Julia Tortise. David Andrews, Colin
Dunbar and Conrad James were elected to the Deanery Synod.
Study Course – The study course, led by Ben Benedikz, due to take place this month, has been postponed.
New Curate – As I announced recently, the Bishop has decided to offer Jo a post in the Diocese which he expects her to take up some time in the Autumn (nothing can be confirmed at this stage). This means that we have been asked to welcome Joycelyn Lewis as our new curate beginning this Summer. Joycelyn, who is training at Queen’s College in Birmingham, will be ordained Deacon on June 29th. We very much look forward to Joycelyn’s arrival. She will work with Jo and Michael and other members of our team while I am on sabbatical. I will return on September 1st and we expect that Jo will leave some time in October, when Joycelyn will move into 4 Etwall Road. Please pray for Joycelyn and Jo at this time of change for them and their families. ...Martin
