Christmas Bells

Occuring
for 1 day, 4 hours
Venue
St Peter's
Address
Rue de l'Eglise Saint Peter Jersey, JE3 7ZH, Jersey

The Bell Tower at St Peter’s Parish Church will be open between noon and 11pm on Christmas Eve (with a pause between 4pm and 5 pm) and again from 9am until 4pm on Christmas Day so parishioners and visitors can maintain the tradition of ringing the church bell. St Peter – along with St Ouen and St Mary - was one of the first Jersey parishes to be freed from French Occupation in 1468 and we ring the bells to both celebrate our freedom and to herald the good news of the birth of Christ.

Welcome to St Peter's

A very warm welcome to St Peter's Parish Church, Jersey, a church that has stood on this site for some 1000 years witnessing to the local community. You are very welcome to join us for any of our services, to use the church for private prayer or meditation or indeed just to wander around.

We are an inclusive church with a Eucharistic tradition. We welcome people of all backgrounds and traditions. Our work at the heart of the community includes very strong outreach to children and schools within the Parish including St Peter's Primary and St George's Prep. We also run adult study groups at various times throughout the year. We look forward to welcoming you in the near future.
