St Peter

B3233 Fremington Barnstaple
http://www.ttec.org.uk

Our beautiful Parish Church in Fremington dates back to the 13th Century. St Peter's is not a museum, but home to a friendly and living congregation. Over recent years God has been breathing new life into our house of prayer so that today people of all ages come to praise God in growing numbers. We have worked hard to develop our ministry to children, young people, and families. Our prayer is that more and more people may come to discover the joy of a living and personal relationship with Jesus.
