New Mission Statement for St John's Stone


Sharing the love of Jesus
Shaped by God’s presence
Making a difference in our community


We believe God’s undeserved favour and love has been poured out on us and our world; so we want to share that love with those we meet.  

We seek to see our lives shaped by God’s Spirit so that we grow in faith hope and love; so we meet regularly to share our lives with one another.

We know God cares for our neighbourhood and especially that His heart is for families, the poor, widowed, lonely and the bereaved; so our premises are here for our community not just us.

St John’s Stone is a United Church which shares the values and traditions of our parent denominations (Methodist and United Reformed Churches).
Our worship is broadly informal, often led by lay people and usually has those of all ages present.
Our Church government and organisational structures reflect those found in our parent denominations.
