Withington S.John the Baptist

The Church of John the Baptist in Withington is in one of the twelve parishes in the benefice of Haughmond and Wrekin. The parish sits in rural Shropshire between Telford and Shrewsbury.

We offer a service in the church on most Sundays. Please check our Services/Events page for timings and occasional date changes.

We also offer Messy Church, family friendly inter-generational worship, in other parishes in our benefice each Sunday. On the First Sunday in a month this is at High Ercall Village Hall. Rodington is the host church on the second Sunday in the village hall. Ellerdine Village Hall is the location on the third Sunday each month.
