St Peter and St Paul, Seal, is trying to contact as many other churches dedicated to St Peter and St Paul around the world in time for our Patronal Festival on June 27th 2010. Our youth group have helped me put this blog together - you can find some of their comments about the church on the page "about us" and I'm hoping it will help us to be more aware of the diversity of God's family as we celebrate.
If you are a member of a church jointly dedicated to these two saints (not just to St Peter or St Paul!) then do send along your greetings - if you aren't the person in charge of the church, please could you check with them first that they are happy for you to do this.
Greetings can be shared by adding a comment. Click on the link in the pale blue bar beneath this message "...comments". There are instructions about how to add a comment in a box on the right of this message. I have started the ball rolling with a greeting from us to you. You might like to tell us where you are, and a sentence or two about your church. This blog is moderated, so there may be a delay between you posting your comment and it appearing here.If you have any trouble posting here, please send your greeting by email to me.

Priest in Charge, St Peter and St Paul, Seal, Kent

Thank you!
Thank you to all who sent greetings for the Patronal Festival. They were much appreciated. Seal Youth Group celebrated with a "sleep"over in the vicarage garden - not much sleep but plenty of fun!

HOW DO I POST A COMMENT?
Look in the pale blue bar beneath my message to the left. You should see a link which says "...comments" - with the number of comments that have already been posted. Click on this link. The comments should appear. Now look at the bottom of all the other comments.
You should see a box, in which you can type.
When you have finished typing, click on the drop down menu, "comment as...". Choose "Name/URL" and put in your name in the box that says "name" - leave the other one empty . You don't have to be a member of anything or signed up to anything or have any passwords to post in this way.
Finally, if the whole thing frustrates you no end, or you can't be bothered, or you have better things to do than figure it out, just send me an email with your greeting in it and I will do the donkey work - this was my silly idea in the first place after all!
