Streetlight - Announcement

Further to the interview with Andy Putt (Project Director for Streetlight) and Eddie Curry (Chair of Streetlight Trustees) on Sunday, the Trustees would like to provide information on the forthcoming changes at Streetlight:
 
As Eddie and Andy announced, Andy will be stepping down from his paid position as Project Director in the next few weeks. He will continue in a voluntary capacity as Associate Evangelist, providing ministry support and working with the young people, as he has successfully done over the past 11 years. Andy will be starting a new job in Wimborne, working for a charity where he can further develop his gifts. The change will provide Andy with more sociable hours and release time to devote to his young family.
 
Further changes are taking place in the staffing team at the Centre over the next few months and the Trustees are taking the opportunity to reflect on and review the mission and vision for the Streetlight Project.
 
This is both an exciting and challenging time, and your prayers and continued support will be greatly appreciated. Please pray for: wisdom as the review is conducted; for discernment as the Trustees consider and decide on the next steps in the life of Streetlight; for all those involved in the process, especially staff, volunteers, supporters, and users of the Centre, that they may be comforted in the knowledge that God is working through His plan.
 
Please also pray for God to guide the right people to respond to the advert for a new person or persons to join the team and lead the way as we enter this new phase for Streetlight.
 
Further details will be provided over the coming weeks as information becomes available. In the meantime, if you have any queries, please contact Eddie Curry (contact details available from the church office or via the church website/Hubb app).
 

Planning your Visit

Welcome from the VicarRevd. Peter Breckwoldt

Let me welcome you to St John’s! I am so delighted you have found our web site. 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.

I do hope I will have the opportunity to meet you personally in the very near future and that you will quickly feel at home at St John’s.

Revd. Peter Breckwoldt
