How to book a church event

Baptisms
The baptism of a child (or adult) is a very special occasion – it marks the beginning of a journey with God which continues for the rest of our lives – the first step in response to God’s love. It is a moment when we can rejoice in what God has done for us in Christ, and as parents and godparents make promises on the child’s behalf.
Baptisms usually take place on Sundays during the 11:00am service.
To book your Baptism please contact Carole Oliver on 01386 860389
Weddings & Blessings
A wedding is a joining of two people in holy matrimony in the presence of God. It is a sign of unity and loyalty and a joyful celebration. Did you know you are welcome to marry in any Church of England church that holds a special significance for you through family or other connections? If you are planning a church wedding, then you can get useful advice and tips by visiting www.yourchurchwedding.org.

Funerals
A funeral is a service to celebrate the life of a loved one, to say farewell as they leave this world and to commit them into God’s love and care. The death of a loved one is always a time of great sorrow and the Vicar and members from the congregation of St Nicholas Peopleton are available to help you and your family at this challenging time.
Services can take place at the local crematorium or can begin with a service in St Nicholas Church, Peopleton beforehand. If you need to organise a funeral for a loved one or need to talk, please contact the Reverend Claire Billington on revdclaireb@btinternet.com or on 07921 101320
