St John the Baptist

The Church of St John the Baptist is Church of England and within the Diocese of Winchester and is part of the Arle Valley Benefice.

It has been the Parish Church of New Alresford since 1851. However, we know from the Domesday Book that there was a church in New Alresford soon after the Norman Conquest. Until 1851 it was part of the Parish of Old Alresford.

St John’s serves the whole community of New Alresford.

Benefice Service at St. Peter's, Ovington.
On this day we remember Jesus’ arrival in Jerusalem riding on a donkey and the welcome that the crowds gave to him just five days before they turned and demanded his death. Everyone goes home with a cross made from a palm leaf to remember how the crowd’s welcome changed and resulted in the crucifixion.
