Welcome to the website of St. John’s Parish Church, Old Coulsdon. As Rector of St John’s, I hope you will find this site informative and helpful. St. John’s is part of the Church of England and is a familiar landmark in Old Coulsdon. It has been the parish church for this area for a thousand years.
Our aim is to help people discover and get to know Jesus. We believe he lived and died and is alive today, and that through faith in him it is possible to know the love of God as Father, and the presence of the Holy Spirit making that love real. We express that aim in our worship, in our care for people, in our links with the wider church, and through various other activities which are described in this website.
We are a group of ordinary people on a journey of faith and discovery. You are very welcome to join us as we travel on together.

Prayer for our nation.
With the session of parliament called for Saturday to debate the Brexit deal, it's never been more important to pray 'Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.'
So St John's will be open for prayer on Saturday morning from 9.30 to 10.30. You are very welcome to come and pray silently at any time during that hour.
We don't often post from the media, but this is a story that shows the power of love and forgiveness. The bible tells us that God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son who lived for others, and died on the cross. Here are people who believe that, and live it out.
