St. Peter's Church
(Church of England)
stands right in the heart of Harrogate. Its geographical parish now consists
largely of shops and offices, and our ministry extends to the many people
who come in to the town each day for work, for shopping, on conferences,
or for leisure. On Sundays and on Saturday nights our main worship services
involve a growing number people from all over Harrogate.
From Monday to Saturday the doors are generally open from 8.00 am until
about 5.30 p.m. Many people come in to pray, relax or simply to look around.
Others visit for special events such as concerts, coffee mornings and
a range of mid-week worship. At the weekend opening hours are even longer
finishing with Choral Evensong from 6.30 - 7.30 p.m. on Sundays and The
Rock ConneXion 6.00 – 7.00 pm on Saturdays.
Usually there is a display on some biblical theme or topical issue on
the main window ledges. Near the entrance there is a basket in which tinned
or wrapped food may be placed for distribution to the poor and homeless
each day. Often there will also be a petition to sign, perhaps on an issue
such as the reduction of the international debts of developing nations.
We believe that an important part of our witness is bringing good news
to those who are materially disadvantaged.
If you are passing, why not come to one of our services, or simply pop
in to enjoy the stillness in the middle of a busy town?
