| Message from Rev Canon Clive Atkinson, chaplain to All Saints Vevey, Neuchâtel English Church and St Peter’s, Château-d’Oex. |
| Dear St. Peter’s Family, You are very welcome to join us in Château-d’Oex next Sunday evening at 17h30 for an online Evening Worship. To obtain Zoom details please email Ann or Ken on neuchatelenglishchurch@gmail.com before 17.30 on Sunday and you will receive all necessary information on how to join the service. So that it doesn’t come as a surprise to you, at the end of the service, once worship is over, we are offering everyone the opportunity to join a breakout room. This is by no means obligatory, but offers the chance to say “hello” to a smaller group of people and chat for a while. You can find further information about this below. See you on Sunday, Clive |
Regular Events
ZOOM Bible Study: WEEKLY LENT COURSE to begin
Having our twice-monthly ZOOM Bible Study on Wednesday Evenings at 8:30pm seems to be the time that suits best. We feel it is very important that we meet together and seek the Lord’s will. Please contact the following email address to obtain the necessary Zoom link:
neuchatelenglishchurch@gmail.com.
The study will be led by one of the group, who has chosen a course by Claire Amos written for the British ecumenical group « Churches Together » It’s called Opening the Scriptures. Were not our hearts burning within us as he was talking to us on the road, while he was opening the scriptures to us? (Luke 24. 32) What are the parts of the Bible that set your heart on fire? (Or other experiences ?) We shall start with Exodus 3 vv 1-15. Please have a lighted candle by you!! Looking forward to seeing you on Wednesday at 20.30.
We invite all who are interested in joining us for an hour of fellowship, prayer and discussion to make contact with us. If you’re new, we’d be delighted to get to know you; and you don’t have to live in the canton of Neuchâtel!
We will send you an Email with the appropriate Zoom Link. In case of a ZOOM-problem we will give you the address of our Zoom leader.

Our annual Neuchâtel CAROL SERVICE unfortunately couldn’t take place in Dec. 2020 due to the current sanitary situation. Singing is also a risky activity as Covid virus can propagate more easily via aerial droplets. However we’ll continue to give you details of online services that you can watch in the safety of your own home!

And don’t forget: If you can receive BBC 1, do watch “Songs of Praise” on Sunday afternoons too!
