Sunday Services

To enter our Church we have two entrances/exits. We have a main front door which has a step into a foyer before taking another step into the Atrium entrance where you can access our toilets, lift, stairs or sit on our sofas. Alternatively round to the left of the Church we have an an entrance with a gentle ramp towards double doors. As our Church hall is on a second floor we have a staircase and a lift to access it. Please ask anyone wearing a lanyard if you need assistance.

At our 10:30am service you are welcome anytime from 10am for a warm welcome accompanied by tea and coffee. You’ll have the chance to meet a few friendly faces and if you’ve brought kids or young people with you then we’ll introduce you to their team. Our Kids team wear Yellow T-Shirts with ‘KIDS TEAM’ lanyards and our Youth team wear blue ‘YOUTH TEAM’ lanyards. Our Staff team wear yellow lanyards with their faces on, our Welcome team wear ‘Here To Help’ lanyards. If it would be helpful for you to meet someone before the service please email office@stpetersharrow.org

From the outside St. Peter’s might look traditional but inside you’ll find a light and open space with two floors and multiple rooms. In the Atrium entrance area we have comfortable seating, flyers about our upcoming events, access to our toilets and the Church Office. Upstairs we have our Main Church Hall which is an open space with a café-style area at the back. We don’t have pews but chairs that we set up for various services and events during the week.

Whatever you’re comfortable in works for us! We’re an informal Church where everyone is welcome. There is no dress code.

On the first Sunday of the month we don’t run a 10:30am service but offer different services to make space for new things, create space to go deeper together and make more time to connect with those who don't know Jesus. If you scroll further down this page you will discover Bubble Church and Presence which run instead of our 10:30am Service.

Kids and young people are SO welcome at St. Peter’s! We have lots of facilities available for them during the service including a creche space for parents/carers with children under 2 upstairs to the right of the Main Hall. Kids Church (2-10) is also available during the service, and parents will be asked to take their children down to the Ashburnham Hall after the first worship song in the 10:30am service. We have lots of fun doing crafts and singing songs together! Youth (11-16) also meet during the service in the Chapel a bit later in the 10:30am service with our youth team to pray, chat, have fun and look at the Bible.

We take Safeguarding at St. Peter’s seriously as we long to be a place where people are safe, known, valued and connected. To find out more about our Safeguarding policy and who our Safeguarding Officer is you can visit our page here.

At 10:25am we have a 5 minute countdown that is shown on the projector screen to help encourage everyone to take their seats by 10:30am when the service starts (and you can hang on to your tea and coffee throughout the service!) Usually we start with a Worship For Everyone song led by the band. The words are on the screen and you’re free to join in or sit and watch. After that the Kids and Youth will go to their separate groups before we have a time of sung worship and a talk looking at a passage from the Bible. Two Sundays a month we take Communion together after the talk which you are welcome to join in with but you don’t have to. If you want to know more or are unsure about what Communion is please email jon@stpetersharrow.org
