Welcome to the Web-site of St Peter's Bexhill.
Following the retirement of Father Edward we have a vacancy. For:
Rector of Bexhill Team Ministry and St. Peter’s Church..
The Vacancy
St Peter's is part of the Bexhill Team Ministry which also includes St Michael's Church. There is currently a vacancy for the post of Team Rector. The Team Rector is also Rector of St Peter's. If you would like to view the Parish Profile click here.
During the vacancy the churchwardens are responsible for the day to day running of St Peter's. We are fortunate to have Dcn Olivia, Associate Vicar, at St Peter's and Fr Stephen Huggins is Team Vicar at St Michael's. Our three retired clergy, Reader and a willing group of other clergy are helping them maintain our weekly and daily services.
The only service we cannot maintain during the vacancy is the Thursday Eucharist at 9am. Otherwise we hope the life of the church is continuing as normal with a variety of Sunday and midweek services, housegroups, social activities etc.
*****
St Peter's is the original Parish Church of Bexhill, and has been witnessing to Christ and serving the local community for over twelve hundred years. This work continues today, and as you browse this site we hope that you will be able to appreciate the extent and vitality of our church's life today.
We believe that, through a wide variety of activities, St Peter's has much to offer to people of all ages and backgrounds. If your taste is for formal worship, we attach great importance to good and relevant preaching and to enriching our liturgy with choral music of a high standard. If on the other hand you prefer a more informal and relaxed style, our weekly Time for God Service in the Community Centre is for you. Whether in the Church or the Community Centre, you are assured of a warm welcome. In all this, our aim, in the words of our Mission Statement ;
“to know Christ and to make him known”
