St John's Church

The vision of St John's is to see our lives and our city transformed by the love of Jesus.

However, a vision only comes alive when people choose to step into it. That’s why our values matter so much – because they describe the kind of church we are building together. Our Values show us how we live out our vision in the midst of our everyday lives, building a church:

  • where everyone is welcome – no matter your story, your questions, or your background.
  • where everyone has a part to play – because church is not a spectator event, it’s a family where each person brings something vital.
  • that champions the next generation – raising up children and young people to know and follow Jesus with courage and joy.
  • of Spirit-empowered people, one step at a time – because growth happens daily, as we learn to depend on God’s presence in the everyday.
  • that we exist for those beyond our doors – a church that doesn’t keep the good news to itself, but serves and blesses our city in practical, sacrificial ways.

We would welcome you to visit and join us.
