About

St John’s Church stands on the corner of Lynwood Grove and Mayfield Avenue and is the “local church” for many people living in the surrounding roads.

But what is a church?

Most people nowadays have little or no idea. All they know of churches is what they hear about religion on the News or see depicted in the Soaps. The Media are wonderful but not entirely reliable…

It is time to set the record straight; what is this place on the corner of Lynwood Grove all about?

  • We are not people who think that we know all the answers
  • We are not people who talk in a different language, wear different clothes and bear no resemblance to anyone you would want to know
  • We are not a group that wants to take over your lives or brainwash your children.
  • We are people who care about children and who are concerned about the kind of society they are growing up in
  • We do provide space and time for people to ask questions about God and develop their understanding of God.
  • We are people who care deeply about peace and justice in the world.

St John’s is a United Reformed Church welcoming a large number of people of all age groups to our church services and midweek activities.

There is a lot going on here and you are welcome to come along at any time or to ask us about anything you want to know. We offer a space and a time for people to ask questions about God, about life and about themselves. We offer a place and an opportunity to be quiet, to find help and to make friends.
