Dear Friends, On the services page you will find details of the services at St John’s in Butts Lane during Holy Week. We hope that you will be able to join us at some time during the week! Easter with its message
of hope is the key festival of the Christian Church. It speaks to us of the
possibility of new life. Easter asks us to lift our eyes beyond the despair and
decay which is all around us, and
can so often seem oppressive. God
says to us that these things do not have the last word. Since last Easter our
church building has risen above its previous limitations to become a more usable
and acceptable space. It is in itself a sign of renewal, and of what can be
done. It is now being used far more effectively for work and worship with the
families of our parish. We hope to share it with you. From us all at St
John’s, we wish you a very happy Easter break with family and friends. Yours sincerely, Tim Ollier 01642 780185 DON'T
FORGET : EVERYTHING EASTER! Once
again, we are having an Easter Fair - this year it will be on Saturday 13th
March in the Parish Hall, Butts Lane between 10 am and 12 noon. We
shall have a café (including Jim’s bacon butties) so that you can sit and
chat to your friends before exploring our stalls where you will find cakes, jams
and chutneys, plants and crafts. There
will also be an Easter-themed raffle together with our ever popular Tombola We look forward to seeing you!! St. John's welcomes all so that together we may :
