Worship is at the heart of being church. While the church of St Peter’s is a fairly modern building (completed in 1961), liturgically we value the rich tradition of our Anglican heritage. Services are based on the New Zealand Prayer Book (NZPB), or the older Book of Common Prayer (BCP).
A parishioner says: The language, prayers, songs and poems of the New Zealand Prayer Book, and the Book of Common Prayer, are timeless, spiritually rich and beautiful. We all participate in the offering of worship, alongside our lay and ordained ministers, saints of every age, and the wider Anglican Church of Aotearoa, New Zealand and Polynesia. These connections are wonderful as we each traverse the contours of covenant life with God.
Wednesday mid-week Communion: 10 am in the chapel, alternates between the NZPB and BCP formats.
Sundays 10 am: a family service enhanced by the organ. The choir sings on the first Sunday of the month. The service is a NZPB Communion service. Children 6+ years gather for Sunday School in the Hall and the childrens creache space is availiable for younger ones at the back of the church.
