Kintsugi Hope Wellbeing Group


The Kintsugi Hope Wellbeing Groups begin on Tuesday 29 April, but there is still time to sign up – see the link below. The groups are running on Tuesday mornings (10am to 11.30am) and evenings (7.30pm to 9pm) and are open to both men and women.

Here at St John’s Wimborne, we are launching a 12-week Kintsugi Hope Wellbeing programme, each week, in a small, safe, and supportive group, we will look at subjects rarely talked about in depth such as: Honesty, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, shame and anger. 

Kintsugi Hope's aims for this shared journey are that:
• Those attending will gain support, understanding and tools that will enable them to become more resilient.
• There will be safe groups, where there is no shame and embarrassment in struggling.
• Those attending will experience an increase in self-worth, confidence, and wellbeing.
• Those attending will gain a deeper understanding of the reality of God's love for them.
• There will be clear pathways to receive additional support if needed – we are not experts and will not be providing counselling in the groups but will signpost people if this would be helpful for them.

The groups are free to attend and although we will talk about God and our Christian faith during the sessions, they will still be accessible to non-Christians.
 
If you feel this might be for you and you’d like to find out more then contact Gillian Mannouch on gillian@stjohnswimborne.org.uk or 07794586608.

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
