About Us

St. John's Broadstone is the Church of England Parish Church of Broadstone, dedicated to St. John the Baptist. We are a friendly and welcoming church with a variety of services and a wide church tradition. We have just made an application to join the Inclusive Church network and believe that God welcomes all. We are now looking forward to offering blessings for those in same-sex civil partnerships and marriages, alongside our offices of baptism and weddings. We love socialising and have all sorts of events from newcomers' parties, BBQs, Fetes and fayres, and a monthly fellowship meeting on second Thursday of the month with a fascinating speaker each time.

We are committed to serving the community around us, and are thrilled to have recently obtained the Bronze Award for Eco Church, as well as becoming a Fairtrade Church. 

We offer family and children's services and events, from 1st Sunday of the month Breakfast Church at 9am with songs stories, crafts and of course breakfast! Once a month on either a Saturday morning or Sunday afternoon we host Muddy Church, a family-friendly and fun-filled eco event, and our 3rd Sunday of the month at the 10am is an All Age service.

We are thrilled that the building of new community rooms, kitchen, toilets and meeting spaces on the northside of the church has just begun and we hope to complete the build by May 2023. These new facilities will help us to better service the local community, as well as increase the exciting events we can offer.

We have an existing parish hall available for hire at weekends and some evenings during the week.
