Ride and Stride 2025

Last opportunities to support your St Johns Bikers efforts please! You can easily make online sponsorship payments on the following link:
https://www.justgiving.com/page/wimbornestjohnsbikerswm23

You can also give cash if easier, to one of the three main organisers, Tim Butterfield, Ben Wiltshire or Keith Loveless.

The monies raised go to Dorset Historic Churches Trust who have significantly supported our own church in recent years with grants for key repairs to our building, along with some of the other beautiful and historic churches locally.

We had a great time on the day cycling around the Dorset countryside, visiting 13 churches including the tiny St Margarets Chapel near Wimborne Hospital, and the welcomes we received were incredible, with specially baked cakes, cups of tea & all kinds of other delights! It was great to meet some of our Brothers & Sisters in Christ, to encourage & to be encouraged.

The younger Team members did amazingly well - if only our legs worked as fast on the peddles!
Thank you to our welcome team at the church on the day, and to all the riders and supporters. Well done all!

 

Planning your Visit

Welcome from the VicarRevd. Peter Breckwoldt

Let me welcome you to St John’s! I am so delighted you have found our web site. 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.

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

Revd. Peter Breckwoldt
