Half an hour of fun, faith and fellowship at the start of a new school year, as we ask God to bless us - so that we, in turn, might be a blessing to everyone. Whether you are 5 or 75, a school-goer or a school long-goner, working or retired... come along and join the fun! Don't forget your backpack (work bag, hand bag, gym bag...)

Rawdon: St Peter

We are a welcoming community of Christians with a long tradition of worship and service at the heart of the Rawdon's community meeting in a beautiful church building. We are committed to follow Jesus Christ in prayer, worship, service and learning ... and we enjoy laughing together too

Our services are at 8.00 am and 10.00am on Sunday mornings and on the 1st Sunday of the month at 6.30 pm we Oasis provides a time of quiet reflection and worship. On Tuesday mornings we meet for Morning Prayer at 9.30am.

We offer fellowship and pastoral care including support at the important times of our lives. For details of how to arrange a Christening, Wedding or Funeral please see the links in the side panel.

Our Grade 1 listed building has been kept in good condition over the years by the generosity and hard work of our congregation and others who support our church. To continue to do this we would appreciate any financial support you can give. If you would like to contribute to the upkeep of the building you can do this by giving online.
