The Anglican Church in St Petersburg is delighted to announce the restart of regular 4pm Sunday worship from 5th July. Due to local social distancing requirements, it is not currently possible to use our normal location of the Petrikirche's small ground-floor chapel; services will instead take place in the main church hall upstairs on the 1st floor.Current coronavirus restrictions mean that you are also required to wear a face mask and gloves, and there will be no refreshments or fellowship after the service which will, for the time being, be a non-Eucharistic service of Evening Prayer.The 4pm service on Sunday 5th July will be led by Rev Michael Schwarzkopf, Pastor of the Petrikirche.Please contact our churchwarden Maria Karyakina via our Get in touch page should you have any queries.
The work of our church is reliant on people’s generosity, a generosity that is a hallmark of a lived-out faith and a testament to it.We give to our church in a variety of ways, but with the suspension of our services we cannot receive all the gifts that we usually would, so we really need your help now. If you are able to give more at this time, please visit the Diocese in Europe online donations page by clicking here, marking your donation: "For St Petersburg". Thank you for your support.
