St Peter's is a Church of England parish church in the Bramley area of Leeds. We are centrally located in the heart of Bramley, close to the local shopping centre and CofE primary school.
In October 2022, St Peter’s began the grafting process, welcoming 15 people from St George’s Church, a designated ‘Resource Church’ in the city centre, and a new Rector, to support the evolving church in a new chapter with a focus on mission and growth. As part of the grafting programme, we wish to employ a Children’s Worker funded by a 2 year grant from the Church Commissioner’s Strategic Development Fund.
In January 2023 we launched our vision to be ‘revealing God’s love in Bramley.’ Our website gives a good snapshot of what is going on. We have already seen growth and our average Sunday attendance is now around 60 adults and 15 children/young people. We have a fortnightly children’s group called Praise Patrol for ages 5 and under. We also run a midweek family based service called ‘Bramley’s Families’ with about 15 families engaging each week. We are continuing to build connections with Bramley St Peter’s Primary School through Collective Worship, as well as the local community through regular family based ‘pop-up’ events.
We would like to appoint someone to deepen our focus on children and their families as we live out our vision of ‘revealing God’s love in Bramley.’
