I joined the congregation at St Peter’s Church of England in Parr for a service to mark its re-opening after extensive refurbishment and renovation.\nThe work, including a brand-new roof, improved disabled access, improvements to the interior and a new heating system, has created a fantastic space for worship, as well as for many other church and community activities in Parr.\nThe service, led by Rev Pauline Rowe, was a celebration and opportunity to give thanks for this significant moment in the church’s life.
