This Sunday offers our Parishes the extremely important opportunity of supporting St. Peter’s Hall in its role of equipping, empowering and enabling excellence in sound spiritual, leadership, discipleship and ministry formation within the Diocese.

If you wish to make a financial contribution, you may issue a cheque to “St Peter’s Hall”, and write on the reverse “For Theological Sunday 2016” and hand it to
