🎥 Did you know you can catch up with our sermons online?

If you weren't able to join us on Sunday, missed part of the service, or would simply like to listen again, we're beginning to share some of our sermons on our YouTube channel.

Last week's sermon, reflecting on the Feeding of the 5,000, is available to watch now, with this week's sermon coming shortly.

It's another way to stay connected with the life and worship of St Peter & St John's wherever you are.

And if something you hear speaks to you, we'd love you to share it with someone else.

🌿 Nothing can separate us from the love of God.

Not the struggles we face.
Not the things we fear.
Not the past, the present, or whatever tomorrow may bring.

This Sunday, we hear one of the great promises of Scripture:

“Neither death, nor life… nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Whatever your week has held, you are warmly invited to join us as we gather together in worship, prayer and reflection.

⛪ Service of the Word – Sunday at 10:30am
📍 St Peter & St John’s Church, Kirkley

Whether you come every week, haven't been for a long time, or have never stepped through our doors before, there is a place for you here.

A warm welcome awaits.

🕯️ “I have seen the Lord.”

Today, the Church remembers Mary Magdalene, who came to the tomb while it was still dark and became one of the first witnesses to the risen Christ.

In the garden, through her tears and confusion, Mary didn't recognise Jesus at first.

Then he called her by name.

“Mary.”

Sometimes faith doesn't begin with having all the answers. Sometimes it begins simply with recognising that, in the midst of all we carry, God knows us and calls us by name.

As this day draws towards evening, our doors are open and you are warmly invited to join us for Compline at 7:30pm — a quiet service of prayer at the close of the day.

📍 St Peter & St John’s Church, Kirkley
🕢 Tonight at 7:30pm

“Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, ‘I have seen the Lord.’”
— John 20:18

🕯️ Compline – Tonight at 7:30pm

Take a moment to pause at the end of the day and join us for Compline at St Peter & St John’s Church.

This quiet and reflective service marks the close of the day with prayer, scripture, silence, and peaceful worship. It's an opportunity to leave behind the busyness of the day and rest for a while in God's presence.

Whether you're a regular member of our congregation or have never experienced Compline before, you are warmly welcome.
