St John the Baptist, Eltham

There has been a place of worship where the Church stands for over 900 years. Today, we hope to be a place of welcome for all who enter our doors; and a beacon of light on Eltham High Street.

Our Church family is made up of young and old, local and International, a mix of all the diversity God gifted us. We hope you can find your place in our community.

So, please do join us for services on Sundays and Thursdays at 10am. Otherwise, the Church is open on Saturdays, between 10-11am- feel free to drop in and have a chat.
