Description

We provide a spiritual oasis of comfort for refreshment and renewal. All Saints’ is an historic church in the heart of the Peterborough with members from all over the region and from a variety of faith backgrounds. We are known for uplifting and meaningful choral worship services. We offer opportunities for spiritual nurture, education and growth. We provide enjoyable and fun social occasions to better know each other.

Our biggest project is the making of Easter Eggs, which we have been doing for over 35 years. The eggs are fondant filled, using real butter and other wholesome ingredients - then molded in 4 ounce eggs, dipped in chocolate. Each is decorated by hand - the colour of the flower thereon indicates the flavor. Vanilla - blue, Maple Walnut - yellow, Chocolate - orange, Cherry - pink, and Coconut - mauve.

The church tries to provide careful pastoral preparation for marriage. In human terms a church wedding affirms the permanence and fullness of the commitment, and the completeness of the mutual giving and sharing. In sacramental terms the marriage, which of course continues long after the wedding ceremony, is a sign of the divine self-giving love and is sustained by that love. The wedding is supported by the love and prayers of the Christian community, which in turn benefits from the renewing experience of being reminded of the vows, standards, and blessings of Christian marriage.

In the Spirit of that command the Parish of All Saints strives to be generous in their outreach and to speak out for the most vulnerable in our community. We provide Food Vouchers for those in need, support the Good Neighbour Care Centre, and collect food for Kawartha Food Share.
