John 9:35-41 (February 19th)

Read John 9:35-41.
How have you experienced the blind coming to see or those who (claim to) see becoming blind?

Jesus always has an effect when people meet him. The blind man has already taken steps of faith by not letting the Pharisees bully him into saying that Jesus is a sinner, and now when Jesus finds him he is open and humble to believe. On the other hand, the Pharisees are proud and will not listen to Jesus. They enink they can see spiritually, but this leads them into furthe blindness and fir when they meet Jesus.

Family Bible Time.

Read: John 9:39

Think: if we come to Jesus wanting to understand, what will Jesus do?
If we come to Jesus thinking we already know everything, what will Jesus do?

Pray: that we would come humbly to Jesus.

Do: play a mini-football game, where one team has their eyes open, and the others have their eyes closed. Swap over when a goal is scored.

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.
