I do get a bit fed up with people who litter the church grounds and dump their waste. But today I got to vent a bit of frustration - and it is the only church I know that keeps a sledge hammer with the litter pickers.

Just because the Sunday holidays are almost over does not mean there is nothing to look forward to. Our autumn activities include an Autumn Fayre, The Beatles Mass and Parish Pizza, Thank you for the memory, and this, Family Fun Day on Saturday 13th September.

Normally sat in church is lovely and peaceful. Just now, sat in the coffee bar area, church otherwise empty, and a picture crashes off the wall.

On 1st January 1996 the people of St Philips woke to find the church had been devastated by a massive fire. It took about four years to rebuild the church and this Sunday, 11th May, we celebrate 25 years of being back in the church. Join us at 11am to be part of that celebration.

We loved Zoe's dismissal following Sunday worship at St Peter's this morning. What has made you smile today?

Amongst all the drama of the Easter story, I often forget about all the mundane things that would have carried on, like as Jesus was arrested the room where the last supper was held would have been cleaned up. Today, between the Walk of Witness and vigil, we washed the towels from Maundy Thursday.
