Holiday at Home
St Peter's Farnborough

Now in its 13th year, Holiday at Home at St Peter's is specially designed for the over-fifties, welcoming church members, their friends and family and anyone from the local community who would like to come. We aim to provide fellowship and outreach with the gospel through hospitality, shared activities and friendship.
 
 

HOLIDAY AT HOME – 15 & 16 and 21 & 23 August 2012

This event is specially planned for the retired.

Brochures and booking forms will be available in church and in the Parish Centre from early June 2012. Please take them for yourself, and for any relatives, friends and neighbours who might be interested.

If you haven't yet tried it, do come along and join us in 2012! Early booking is recommended as we soon get full.

Please pray for the speakers and all the preparations and be thinking and praying about inviting friends to this popular event.
If you lead a church group or belong to other groups in the local community please tell them about Holiday at Home and encourage them to put the dates in their diaries.

The event takes place in the Parish Centre and Church during two weeks in August, with an identical two-day programme each week to cater for the large numbers who wish to attend. Speakers and demonstrations cover a wide variety of topics, and over the years have included travel experiences, art, music, gardening, solo round-the-world flight and yacht-race, deaf awareness and fair-trade.

Each full day includes coffee on arrival, two sessions in the morning, a hot lunch, one session in the afternoon and tea before going home. Each morning starts with a Bible-based "Thought for the Day" and on the second afternoon we hold a celebration service in church for all our guests. We seek to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with all who come, by welcoming them, caring for them, speaking naturally of our own experiences of God' s love and offering a stimulating and enjoyable time in good company.

All participants are invited to join us on Sunday 19 August 2012 for the 11am service and then to come along to other St Peter’s groups and activities in the Autumn to explore and develop their own faith.  Two reunions the following  February and March are centred on an 11am service, followed by lunch, and are always very popular..
