St John's Church, Yeovil

St John's church is a friendly and welcoming church in the heart of Yeovil. Our church family covers all ages, and we have a broad range of backgrounds and interests which is reflected in our church life.

"There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.”

St John’s is a place of hospitality, where all are welcomed. It is our aim to ensure that whoever enters our church feels the warmth of friendship, and the opportunity to meet with God in a place where they feel comfortable.

This may mean sitting in a place that is tucked away to one side, or near the toilet, or sat close to the door for a quick escape. We are happy to move chairs to make more space for pushchairs or wheelchairs. Just let us know how we can help you to feel more comfortable and safer and we will do what we can to achieve this.
