John 1:1-9 (January 5th)

Read John 1:1-9
Why should 'the Word' be the most important thing in our lives?
Before becoming flesh as Jesus (v14), ‘the Word’ has always existed as God, and is the source of our life. To know ‘the Word’ is to be in the light we were created for.

Family Bible Time

Read: 1:6-7

Think: What does John want to tell us about?
Why does he want to tell us about the light?

Pray: that you would see God’s light as you read Johns gospel.

Do: hide in a dark room or a cupboard with a torch. What can you see with the torch off/on?

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.
