As people are not generally coming into church at the moment – you won’t see the fabulous Christmas cards we have available to order by St Clare’s.
Have a look at the designs below and email Liz at the office (stpetersbedford@googlemail.com) if you’d like to order or have more info (cost, envelopes etc.)
Please send in your orders or enquiries by Thurs 19th November to give enough time to put in last orders and post/deliver to you before December.
This year many things have changed in the way we do them – this Remembrance Sunday, Acts of Remembrance and the Poppy Appeal will also be different this year – many have had to be cancelled or alternatives found.
One initiative we can all get behind is ‘Put a Poppy in the Window’. Whether free-hand or printed out – display a poppy/poppies in your windows will show “we will remember them.”
Thank you to all who donated!
Quick heads up – Thursday September 24th 11.30-1pm. Come and enjoy/buy some delicious baked goods. We will be following Government Guidelines on social distancing and hand sanitiser.
This is going to be a little different this year, but sponsor packs are available from the church or email the office to get one sent.

The Archbishops of Canterbury and York are calling for Church of England churches to put public worship on hold and become a “different sort of church” in the coming months to face the challenge of coronavirus.
In a joint letter, Archbishops Justin Welby and John Sentamu said it was now necessary to put public services on hold until further notice.
But they said that far from having to “shut up shop”, the Church of England must face the challenge by becoming a radically different kind of church rooted in prayer and serving others.
It comes after the Government announced unprecedented peacetime measures to try to control the spread of the virus, with restrictions on public gatherings, transport and working.
Unfortunately then due to the Covid C19 Virus St Peters Church will be closed for public worship for the foreseeable future.
The Mission Team of St Peters and myself will continue to pray for our community and country and that all who might catch the virus will recover swiftly and that we will be able to resume normal life
