Community & Pastoral Care

Offering fellowship, hospitality and compassionate care to the people of Peterborough and beyond.

More Than a Sunday

A church for the whole community

Faith comes to life in the way we care for one another. Beyond our services, St Peter's is a place of friendship, welcome and practical support — a constant presence in the life of our rural town and the wider mid-north region.

Fellowship & Hospitality

Friendship around the table

Some of the warmest moments of church life happen over a cup of tea. Our fellowship gatherings bring people together across the generations, easing loneliness and building lasting friendships.

  • Morning teas and shared meals after worship
  • Seasonal gatherings and celebrations throughout the year
  • A welcoming space for newcomers and long-time members alike
  • Connection and belonging for those who live alone or far from town

  • Comfort and support for grieving families
