St. Peter’s Room is now a well established part of our Church building complex at St. Peter’s. It was the result of much hard work and fund raising by David Thomas and the project team he lead during the period 2000 - 2005. It was dedicated by the Bishop of Bedford on Sunday 19th. February 2006 as part of our main morning service.Since then it has provided us with an excellent meeting facility together with a kitchen and toilets.This has transformed our capabilities to provide hospitality after services and a warm environment for numerous Church and other community groups throughout the week.The main contributors to this project were as follows:
