Our purpose statements
‘We exist to live and grow in our knowledge and love of Jesus Christ, to be a growing body of people in relationship with each other with Christ at the centre, desiring to make his love known in the power of the Holy Spirit so that others too may discover his love’
We summarise this as L2G2P2: Loving, living, giving, growing, practising, proclaiming. These are the words round the edge of our church logo
And the quick & easy to remember version – Knowing Him and making Him known
St. John’s hopes to be
A church where lives are changed and unchurched people become disciples of Christ
A church which demonstrates to our community and locality that churches do grow in this day and age
A church with a foundation of grace, communicating that people matter to God, reaching out to those who are hurting and without hope
A church having the faith to try new things and willing to make mistakes
A church desiring to be a model, an encouragement and a resource for other churches
A church where people enjoy life and are excited about Jesus
