Jesus’ Family on Jesus’ Mission
St. Peter’s is a vibrant, flourishing, evangelical church, which is passionate about living the Gospel message in the heart of Smithills, Halliwell and across Bolton. We believe that God has called us into partnership with Him to see our parish and wider community transformed by His love.
Give
This is achieved by the five areas of commitment. To achieve our God-given vision to transform Bolton together we need to unlock resources and encourage everyone in their giving. We invest in teaching and opportunities to enable people to give.
Meet
At the heart of our strategy for growth is growing people through small groups, which are the engine room of the parish. Small groups are places where people can really grow in their faith, discern God’s will and receive prayer and support from trusted friends.
Serve
Our passion is that every member of St. Peter’s parish is engaged at some level in the mission and ministry of the church.
Serve
The heart of our faith is our obedience to Christ’s call to share our faith with others. Not all are called to be evangelists but we are all called to share our faith and bring people to baptism.
Pray
Prayer is at the centre of everything we do. We desire to be at the centre of God’s will in all our ministry and mission, and it is fundamental that we are guided by Him through our prayer.
