Welcome to the parish of St. Peter’s Halliwell.
On Sunday 6th October we held our parish-wide Vision Service at Bolton School.
The service was recorded and is now available to watch on our Youtube channel.
Our weekly Newsletter has full details of what’s on in the coming few weeks. Click the image to read or download it.
It would be great to see you at a service at one of our four worship centres on Sunday. However, if you are unable to join us, the 10.30am service from St. Peter’s Church is live-streamed on Facebook and YouTube.
The talks from our Sunday 6.30pm parish-wide service in St. Peter’s Church are also available on our YouTube channel.
If you would like more information about any aspect of what we offer, please contact us.
Morning Service theme - Commitment
On 6th October Rev. Alan shared his vision for our parish at a united service at Bolton School.
Over the next few weeks members of our preaching team will explore these areas in more detail as they share the vision with the different congregations across the parish.
Evening Sermon series
Our evening services over the coming weeks offer a variety of options. On 8th September we welcomed the Bishop of Bolton, Bishop Matthew, who talked about “The Art of Giving”. The World Focus Sunday theme continues on 22nd Sept, and on 13th October we will hear from the young people who attended DTI in July to hear what “Dreaming The Impossible” meant for them.
We meet every Sunday at 6.30pm in St. Peter’s Church.
The reading and talk from the evening service is available on our YouTube channel.
Oasis
Oasis is our midweek service – a time of fellowship and friendship at St Peter’s!
Refreshments are served in the church lounge from 10.30am and at 11.30am there is a 30 minute service in church for those who would like to attend.
Do come and join us – everyone is very welcome for part or all of our time together.
Coming up soon …

Parish Centre
St. Peter’s parish church is an impressive Grade II listed building at the heart of the parish. In the 1980’s an extension provided a lounge, kitchen and toilets and work is currently underway to provide a welcoming entrance area.
Barrow Bridge Mission is situated in an important conservation area on the edge of Bolton. The attractive community is a former model community mill village and comprises former mill owner and worker cottages.
Smithills Fellowship meets in St. Peter’s Smithills Dean CE Primary School and Smithills Hall Chapel. The Chapel forms part of Smithills Hall and is leased from the council.
St. Andrew’s meets in the Hope Centre, which serves the Johnson Fold estate. The centre has been completely refurbished in the last 15 years, to better serve the needs of the surrounding community.
St. Peter’s Parish Centre is a hive of activity most days with church groups and other bookings.
It is also home to the administrative hub of the parish. The office is open Monday to Friday from 9.30am-3pm.
