We would like to welcome you to our beautiful church of St John the Evangelist, on behalf of everyone who lives and worships here. Sutton Veny is a friendly, prayerful and inclusive community with the church at its heart. Here at St John the Evangelist, we joyfully live out our calling to grow in the love of God through hope, prayer and service. We have a fantastic team who are here to help should you wish to visit us for a service, use the church for a life event, trace your family history or if you are seeking a place for quiet contemplation.

The parish of Sutton Veny: St John the Evangelist is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer(s), PSOs. The Diocese of Salisbury’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor (DSA) who advise our PSOs. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the DSA. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority Children or Adults Services.

All are very welcome and we hope you are able to join us at one of our services or events soon.
