Saint Peter's Church

This years concert was very well attended by 127 people helped no doubt by the mild weather and growing popularity of this unique evening.

Made popular by the wonderful, 'Sussex Harmony Quire' and their traditional singing and helped a little by warming mulled wine and mince pies.

Thanks go out to all who came, helped and performed.

St Peter's day Evensong Service.

On Sunday 24 July the 'Friends of St Peter's held the now annual Sevice of Evensong to celebrate St Peter's Day. 

 A well attended service of 85 people, helped no doubt by the wonderfully sunny day. 

The service was led by the clergy and choir from the Parish church St John's, and provided us all with wonderful music and a very thoughtful sermon.

To help the Churches Conservation Trust continue with its valuable work caring for all of the beautiful buildings under its protection a collection of £219.44 was taken.

Many thanks to all who helped and came.
