Services & Sacraments
At St John's we believe in worship ...
Farncombe has been a sacramental church for a century and more. We think worship - when Christians pray together - is one of the main ways God speaks to human beings. And more than that - we believe he acts, too.
Regular Services
Every Sunday:
8am: Holy Communion, a quiet said service lasting about 35 minutes

MESSY CHURCH …
is our regular special worship time especially for anyone who enjoys informality and fun!
It means what it says on the tin! Roughly once a quarter on a Saturday afternoon we
meet together for fun, and often messy, activities to help us think about the life and
words of Jesus Christ. Refreshments are served after the mess. Messy Church was
originally devised by the Bible Reading Fellowship. The next St John's Messy Church
is at 3pm on Saturday January 11th.
FOREST CHURCH
Forest Church events are growing (as it were) and we have decided to give it a try! Our Forest Church is a quiet and reflective time to think about God in nature. Forest Church will meet next on January 26th at 3pm - details to follow.
