Creation Care: Baby Laura Asks

Bath Time Baby
I love taking baths! It's my favourite part of our night routine, especially when Daddy helps me get into bed.
 
What do you think?
What do you do to save energy and be more eco-friendly in the bathroom? This is what we do currently to be more eco-friendly:
 
Fill the tub less than halfway. Did you know that reducing water by an inch saves about 5 litres?
Bathe together. Mummy or Daddy and I share bathwater instead of separate showers.
Plug the drain before filling. Have you ever been guilty of letting the initial cold water run down the drain?
Lower the bath temperature to 38°C for baby safety, though it may feel cooler than the usual 50°C.
 
Did you know that Wessex Water suggests running your bath at 40°C  instead of 50°C ?Were you aware this could save 40% on energy and reduce your bill by about £200 a year?

Planning your Visit

Welcome to St John's Church!

We are so delighted that you have found our website. We are a Church family in Wimborne for anyone living, working or studying around this area. Whoever you are, whatever your age, whether you’re an experienced Christian or not, we would love you to join us.

From an intrigued onlooker to the committed follower we are keen that everyone should grow in relationship with God through knowing Jesus. To help us do that our emphasis is on hearing God speak to us by his Holy Spirit through his word, the Bible. Each of us knows that we only grow in a relationship with someone and get to know them when we spend time listening to them and responding and reacting to what they say. So the focus of St John’s is on listening to God’s word, talking to him in prayer and taking up all that he says.

The Church family here at St John’s longs to help anyone who wants to investigate the life of Jesus. On this site you will find people, meetings, talks and events shaped to help you take another step forward in finding out more about God and his love for us in Jesus, and to help you get linked into the church family life.

We hope to have the opportunity to meet you personally in the very near future and that you will quickly feel at home at St John’s.

Stuart Hull and Nigel Day (Churchwardens)
Please note that we are currently seeking a new Vicar, following the retirement of Revd Peter Breckwoldt in July 2025
