2025 Motto Verse
Sundays at St John's
January 2025 Sermon Series: "Luke and the Lowly"
A key feature of Luke's gospel is its emphasis on Jesus' interactions with those who were least valued by society, including the poor, tax collectors, people with disabilities, and women. During this series we will examine what stands out about the way Jesus relates to these people, and the insight that this gives us into the nature of the kingdom of God that we are called to proclaim and embody.
This weekend which includes Holy Communion (Sunday 26th January), Stephen Kuhrt will explore 'Jesus proclaims Good News to the poor' (Luke 4.14-30)
Our Sunday morning groups for children and young people meet during the service. There is a creche, as well as an opportunity for those of primary or secondary school age to meet together in separate groups. There is also a relaxed space (with toys) for parents or carers with babies or toddlers to sit near the rear of the congregation if they wish.
St John's Prayer Meeting - each Sunday evening in the church lounge at 6.30pm.

St. John's is an evangelical church within the Church of England. We aim to be a welcoming place and to serve our local community. The area around our location in Kingston Road, about half way between Kingston and New Malden, has changed a lot since our church was founded as a tin hut mission church in 1885. But inside our 20th century church building, the strength of commitment is as firm as ever.
At St John's we take the safeguarding and care of children and vulnerable adults very seriously.

The local primary school - Christ Church Primary School was founded and is partly funded by Christ Church and St John’s
