St John's, Cotehill

Welcome to St John's Church in Cotehill.  We have a small but dedicated congregation, mostly elderly women, but please don't let that put you off - absolutely everyone is welcome.  We hold a family service on the fourth Sunday of each month and would love to see you and your children.
