St John The Divine

---

St John the Divine Church occupies a place at the heart of Selsdon, built at the same time as most of the houses and serving this community faithfully ever since. If you have an opportunity to visit the church in person you will find an interesting building, a bit like a tardis – red brick outside, light and airy inside.   But it is more than just an interesting building.   As well as the stones which make up the building you see, the Church is made up of “Living Stones”, an inclusive community of people faithfully gathering to worship, and serving the community at Selsdon.   Worship is offered here every Sunday morning at 8am (said service in traditional language) and 10am (communion with hymns and music) and we also have a Eucharist service on Thursday morning at 10.15am.   Please see the notice sheet or the noticeboard at the front of the church for details of other services and events.   The church also plays an important part in the life of this community, and we are privileged to be invited to share important moments with people as we celebrate with them the birth of a child in baptism (Christening), a marriage, or the sadness of the death of a loved one through being invited to officiate at the funeral either here or at the Crematorium.   St John’s believes in a God who says “yes”, welcoming anyone and everyone, just as they are, and reaching out in love to those around us. I hope that you will see some of what we are about in the pages of this website, and perhaps be inspired to come and give us a try one Sunday.       Revd Jenny Rowley  Rector
