COMMUNICATIONS

One of the challenges of our times is communications.  In the early days of our Republic, the challenge was getting useful information distributed in a timely manner.  It still seems remarkable to me that the Battle of New Orleans was fought on January 8, 1815 - about two weeks after the signing of the Treaty of Ghent which formally ended the War of 1812.  If only word of the treaty had arrived at today's speed, many lives would have been spared. 

We face a different challenge - in the midst of the barrage of information with assaults us so much of the time, to what shall we pay attention?  
St. Peter's (as virtually all parish churches) is striving to provide meaningful information about the opportunities we offer to learn and grow together.  We have recently refreshed and updated the website (www.stpetersweston.org), using new technology which allows us to add new pictures and additional features.  More will be added over the coming months, and we welcome your input and feedback as well as your help in creating new content.  The weekly Keys Newsletter is sent electronically on Fridays (as well as printed out and sent by traditional mail upon request) to provide time-value information.  If you are not receiving the Keys Newsletter, please go to the website and subscribe to the Newsletter as indicated.  The Sunday service bulletin includes announcements about opportunities which are available.

In the midst of the "noise" of constant information, I hope you will take the opportunity to be proactive in knowing about how you can grow in the faithful fellowship of St. Peter's.
