What's on

Quiet Christmas Service with Holy Communion

for 1 hour
St Peter's Church, Shirwell
Shirwell Barnstaple, EX31 4JU, United Kingdom

Christmas isn't always 'merry and bright', for many reasons. This quiet service explores the messy reality of the Christmas story. There will be time for reflection, an opportunity to light a candle for loved ones, and space to not rush through the darkness of the season but wait for the coming Light.

Our Mission Community

Safeguarding

Our parish of Shirwell: St Peter is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO). Our Diocese of Exeter’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSO. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm, please contact the PSO Averil Richardson. Tel: 01271 850537 or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult social care services."
