John 17:6-10 (March 22nd)

Read John 17:6-10.
What does it mean to belong to Jesus?
Although God loves the whole world, he has a special love for us his people. The Father gives us to the Son, for him to reveal the Father to us. Jesus does this through his words, which we receive as the word of God, knowing that Jesus is the one sent from the Father. If you are still going with these notes, well done! You might want to think about how you can keep going after Easter when we finish John’s gospel - what will you read next? It is so important to spend time each day with God in his word - remembering that we are his and listening to his voice.

Family Bible Time

Read: John 17:9-10

Think: who is Jesus praying for?
How does it make you feel to belong to Jesus?

Pray: thank Jesus that he prays for you

Do: write ‘I belong to Jesus’ on a piece of paper and put it in your pocket to remind you during that day.

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.
