About Us

St. John's is a welcoming family of all ages, aiming to share God's love with our community. We use a variety of styles of worship, reverent, relaxed and relevant. We hope that you will find here a spiritual home for offering worship to God and support and encouragement to grow in your Christian faith.

We particularly value our links with Tipton's Church of England Primary School, and seek ways to develop our ministry and outreach to children. Lay ministry is also a developing area of our life together and we encourage our members to discern and use their gifts.

The parish also includes St. Gregory's Church in Venn Ottery, where we worship together on the first Sunday of the month at 9.30 am. There is also an 8 am Said Communion service at Venn Ottery on the 2nd Sunday of the month.

A small, friendly, informal group of people from the whole parish meet most weeks (on Thursday evenings)  for fellowship, Bible study and discussion and prayer. We always welcome newcomers and you don't have to commit to attending every week.
