Elections

Churchwardens – May 12 will also be the time we hold our annual meeting for the election of Churchwardens – this will form the first part of the overall meeting. Churchwardens are appointed for a period of one year and so have to be elected or re-elected at every APCM.

The role of churchwarden is incredibly important in helping to lead our work and ministry, working with the Priest-in-Charge and the leadership team and Parochial Church Council. We have put together some Frequently Asked Questions (see the link below) to explain more about the role and how it works.

Please pray about this important role and that God will call the right people to step forward at this time.

As well as wardens, there are elections to vacancies on the Parochial Church Council. The PCC is an important body as it forms the Trustees of the charity which is St Peter’s. Its members work closely with the Priest-in-Charge in being responsible for leadership, governance and oversight of the work of the church, from worship and mission to finance and our buildings and land.

Please do think and pray about who you want to serve you in any of these posts. The nomination forms for both of these are out now and can be found on the welcome desk in church. Please hand completed nomination forms to Revd Natasha Thomas and speak to any of the Staff Team or any current member of the PCC if you wish to know more about serving in either of these roles.
