St John’s Church, Fleet Street, has survived many challenges over the years, but wear and tear take their toll on an old building. Our volunteers work hard to keep the church in good condition and safe to use. Last year we repaired dangerous stonework inside the church. Earlier this year we repaired the hopper that was causing rainwater to come into church. Now, we must repair external stonework that will become unsafe if not repaired. We need to raise £35,000 for that work. We have received some grant funding, and are applying for more grants, but we cannot raise the total needed without your help. If you can please help in the following ways: * Cash donations can be left in the collecting jars in church and in the café * Cheques payable to St John the Baptist PCC * Online at http://www.stjohnthebaptistcoventry.org.uk/ * By bank transfer to Sort code 08-92-99 Account name St John Baptist PCC Account number 67241190 quoting reference ‘Safe and Dry’ Thank you
On 18 May Fr Dexter dedicated a tree and plaque in memory of WWI veteran Arthur Ernest Clews who died of war wounds in 1918 at the age of 18. He is among those commemorated in our war memorial window at St John's, and he is now also commemorated in the War Memorial Park. Later this year, we will host an exhibition on our war memorial window and some of the men named on it - look out for details.For pictures of the occasion see St. John the Baptist, Coventry - Home | Facebook
