After a long summer break, Rock Solid youth group reopens this week! All 13 - 16 year olds welcome. Contact Wit Hong for more info (youthworker@stpetersnorbiton.org.uk / 07876200842) or just come along to Oxygen Hall (next to St Peter's Church, near Asda) on Monday evenings at 7pm...
Peter Holmes (Vicar of St Peter’s) would like to invite anyone interested in doing something with the “Garden People” here at St Peter’s to a meeting next week.
As is clear to anyone who passes the church there are now a considerable number of drinkers and (former) methadone users frequenting the grounds. As the weather gets colder in the Autumn, Peter would love to see the church tackling some of the issues they face, including providing a space for nurturing faith.
He is inviting together all those who are willing to engage with them to a meeting at St Peter’s, Norbiton at 12.30pm on Thursday 31st July 2008.
St Peters' Rock Solid Club headed away this weekend to Blacklands farm in Sussex for a weekend of climbing, camping and bungee trampolining!
It was a great weekend comprising sunshine, camp fires, toasted marshmallows and deep and meaningful conversations.
The photos give a glimpse of what we got up to, but fail to convey the great sense of fun we all had, which for some of the young people was the first time they had not only camped, but had spent more than a brief period in the countryside.
It was great to see the young people attempt various activities that they hadn't tried out before. Seeing them attempt and succeed in climbing and exploring we were able to chat to them about stepping out in faith in other areas in life.
Two years ago when we went away with the Rock Solid group we returned with an ungrateful group of teenagers, this time however we saw how much this group had moved on as we came back laughing, chatting and wishing the trip was longer.
The next challenge is to recruit a new (paid) worker for St Peters, they will then be charged with developing the work and the going deeper plans of work (see details below).
