StreetLight's request for foliage donations

To create beautiful, long-lasting wreaths, we’re in need of fresh evergreen foliage, particularly:

• Bay

• Ivy

• Conifer fir / green garden hedging (especially useful as it’s pliable and easy to shape around a wreath frame)

• Holly (bonus points for non-spiky holly, usually found higher up the plant)

Please note:

• We’re looking for foliage that stays green when dry

• No pine, please, as the needles drop very quickly

If you’re able to donate any suitable foliage, we would be so grateful. Donations can be dropped off at StreetLight on Saturday 29th or Sunday 30th November.

If the centre happens to be closed on arrival, you’re welcome to leave bags at the back of StreetLight by the silver double doors. Simply drive past StreetLight, turn left by the sound studio, and follow the road around to the back of the unit.

Freshness is essential, so it’s important that drop-offs are made on these dates.

Thank you so much for your support—your contributions truly help make our events special for everyone who attends. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us directly.

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.
