**** The 9.30am service concluded with a surprise for Peter! ****

After preaching and celebrating the Eucharist, he was caught “on the hop” when the children

came to the front for the usual presentation of their morning’s discussion.

They had been discussing “faith”, as Shirley Docker told the congregation, and the children had questions for Peter.

Do listen – it is an excellent ad hoc exposition for both child and adult -
