GROWING IN LOVE - DEEPENING FAITH
WORKING FOR GOD - WELCOMING ALL
Welcome to the website of St Peter's Church, in Harborne. We are part of the Church of England and worship has taken place here since Saxon times. We are a friendly congregation of all ages and hope to see you at one of our services or events.
********************
Services
Services are all gradually coming back in church - on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays. All details are on the Services page here.
Updated guidance for attending St Peter's Church, following the latest government Covid restrictions.
Attending church:
Please do not attend church if you are feeling unwell.
Seating:
Seating is currently in alternate rows in the centre and side aisles. Please continue to allow everyone sufficient space. If you do not want someone to sit next to you, please take a red card (available on your way into church) and place it next to you on the pew to indicate this.
Masks:
Masks are required in church at all times, unless exempt. We have been advised that FFP2 masks are better than cloth.
Lateral Flow Testing:
Given the recent surge in Covid cases, prior to attending worship at St Peter’s, please ensure you take a lateral flow test.
******************
The COVID-19 vaccine is our best defence against the virus used alongside effective social distancing, wearing a mask and washing your hands.
Getting vaccinated means protecting yourself and you may also help to protect your family, friends and patients from the virus.
The vaccine has been developed and approved following a number of clinical trials involving thousands of people across the world. It has also undergone mandatory safety tests to ensure it is safe for adults and children.
It is given in two doses by your local NHS service. Boosters are available for people who had their second dose at least three months previously. First and second dose appointments will usually be held eight weeks apart.
For the latest guidance, details of how to book your vaccine and walk-in clinics, can be found here: https://www.birminghamandsolihullcovidvaccine.nhs.uk/

THE PARISH GIVING SCHEME
Many people give generously to support St. Peter’s through the Parish Giving Scheme, by Standing Order or by Direct Debit, all of which can be Gift-Aided. However, as there are no services taking place, it is not possible to place your offering, in whatever form, on the collection plate. If you would like to continue to give, please do deliver envelopes to the cloister parish office letter box or contact the parish office for details of how to change to one of the online methods. To join the Parish Giving scheme go to https://www.parishgivingscheme.org.uk/for-donors or phone 0333 002 1271.
Do consider this as a means of giving – those of us who use it find it very simple and straightforward. We thank you for your continued care and concern for the work of the church.
Another way to raise money for the church is through EASYFUNDRAISING. If you shop online you can easily become a supporter and every time you order on-line, a donation is automatically made to us directly from those participating retailers. Click here for more details.

St Peter's latest Health and Safety Policy, Privacy Statement and a Policy on the Care and Protection of Children, Young People and Vulnerable Adults have all been approved by the PCC and are available on the Parish Office page.
