St Peter’s Prayer Link
St Peter’s Prayer Link is an online prayer group.
We invite parishioners and others to submit prayer requests, which will trigger focused prayer support from a small group of pray-ers, for one month from the date of the request being made.
The St Peter’s Prayer Link does not replace the weekly Prayer List that is published in the Pew Sheet, and used at Mass each day of the week. Rather, this is intended as a prayer boost, additional private prayer support for those who request it.
Fr Roger Prowd is the St Peter’s Prayer Link coordinator. The others in the Prayer Link at this inaugural stage are: Fr Hugh, Di Clark, Xeverie Swee, and Peter Yewers. We anticipate bringing one or two other members of the Pastoral Care team onto the Prayer Link in the coming weeks.
Confidentiality is of course paramount to this model of prayer support, so be assured that prayer requests will be kept strictly private amongst the Prayer Link group. Prayer requests will not be made public at Mass, nor shown in the Pew Sheet.
To ensure effective, confidential and accurate communication, all prayer requests should be made to the coordinator, Fr Roger, only. Fr Roger will then pass the request to the others in the Prayer Link. If you would like additional confidentiality for your prayer request, just mention this to Fr Roger, and your petition will be circulated to the Prayer Link group anonymously.
For further information on the St Peter’s Prayer Link, and to request prayer support in this way, please contact Fr Roger Prowd on: 0417 323 112 or rwprowd@bigpond.com
Online Ministry Working Group
In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, St Peter’s has developed a variety of online ministries. Our worship is now live-streamed to Facebook and uploaded to YouTube. Each week we pray the Rosary on Zoom and have a Christian Meditation group on Jitsi, as well as communicating through the Vicar’s weekly e-newsletter and Morning Tea at the Vicarage by Zoom. In June 2020 the Online Ministry Working Group initiated a survey of parishioners, the results of which may be found here
