Christian Aid Lent Lunches

Wimborne Lent Lunches 2026

A very big Thank You to all of you who have come to our first two Lent Lunches. The response has been amazing – about 50 people at each giving a real buzz of conversation and the financial response equally amazing with donations already reaching just over £1,500.

The lunches provide an opportunity for people from different churches to meet together and this reflects one of the aims of Christian Aid – bringing people together to support and encourage all.

The next lunch will be on Tuesday 10^th March and we hope you will be able to join us whether this would be your first, second or third for this year. Arrive between 12.30 and 12.45 and there will be a “thought for the day” around 1.00pm. The Lunches will then continue for the following 3 Tuesdays – 17^th, 24^th and 31^st March so please make a note in your diaries. All are at Wimborne Methodist Church.

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.
