Winnie REMNANT
‘It is with sadness that we announce the death of Winnie who
died peacefully in her sleep last weekend. Winnie has been a
member of the Church for 14 years and worshipped regularly
with us as well as being a member of the Songs of Praise, Food for
Thought and sometimes Penton Park congregations. We will
remember her sense of fun and humour! St. Peter’s was her
family. We will celebrate Winnie's life at 2pm on Wednesday
25th February and we hope that many of us from our various congregations will
be able to join together at her Funeral Service here at St. Peter’s, and come into the
Hall afterwards for refreshments, and share warm memories of Winnie!
ALPHA 2015 BEGAN last Monday ...
meeting at The Vicarage, 9 more weekly evenings include

faith?’ We share a meal together, followed by a DVD and
coffee/chat, and would still welcome new (and old) faces to
join the group - come and meet new people and explore the
Christian faith together. Contact Tim on 01932 563141.
