Work parties

There are work parties going on every weekend in October in the church hall at St Peter's - alongside the professional work being done in the church chancel itself: heating, lighting, sound etc - all making the place fit for purpose in time for our reopening services on 1 November - a date fixed in people's minds in Brighton as the day of the Old Crocs (vintage cars London-Brighton), which goes right past St Peter's, and also, of course, All Saints Day.

So encouraging to see how much can be done in a relatively short period of time - the other day we filled a skip in 45 mins flat! And over the next few weeks there's something for everyone to be involved with - sugar-soaping walls, cleaning loos, painting skirting boards, putting up posters and banners on noticeboards around the church, doing a mailshot to many of the 6500 petitioners thanking them for their support and inviting them along to a Sunday sometime
