Wimborne Foodbank

From their Facebook page:
We were devastated to discover our food store shed has been broken into over the weekend. This puts extra pressure on our already very busy team as we have been in high demand over the Easter period. Stock that has been taken include: tinned fish, tinned spaghetti, corned beef/hams, meat meals, meatballs, hot dogs, baked beans, ravioli, pasta sauce, long Life milk, pasta, rice (dry), spaghetti (dry), soup, tinned tomatoes, empty bags, bottles of squash and toilet rolls.
This leaves our stocks very low of these items so if anyone can support by popping an extra item into our collection points as below we would be so very grateful.

Planning your Visit

Welcome from the Vicar

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
