St John’s is a vibrant and exciting church community in Guildford. We believe that God is calling us to be a growing church at the heart of the community of Stoke-next-Guildford. This means that we strive to grow closer to God in worship and relationship, closer to each other as friends and as a caring people, and closer to the community and local parish that we serve, seeking to tell and demonstrate the love of God to all. We are committed to extending a warm welcome and to do everything that we can to help you feel at home with us, to help you grow closer to God and help you to make a difference in the world.
