The aim of the church in this parish is to be a centre for
Christian Worship, Witness, Teaching and Pastoral Care for Everyone

In seeking to fulfill this mission a wide variety of activities are centred upon St. John's Church.
Regular and varied, forms of Sunday Worship
Periodic study sessions

Sunday School (or the JAM Club) leading young people in the steps of Jesus
Rupert Bear Club for pre-school children and their parents

Preparation for and solemnization of marriages
Funerals & Interments

The clergy are ready to give spiritual support
whilst within the church community we have a number of trained counsellors with various specialisations including
bereavement, relationship and stress counselling.
Other lay people are ready to lend a listening ear.

Here at St. John's Church we seek to serve our community
and welcome others interested in similar service to join with us.
