St John's Church Boxmoor

About

Boxmoor Parish is part of the Diocese of St. Albans
within the world-wide Christian Church.
 
Our mission:
We seek to proclaim the Good News of Christ through worship and action.
 
We aim to:
  • Reach out in love and service to the people of our parish
  • Support and accompany those in need, pain or grief
  • Welcome, teach and nurture newcomers of all ages
  • Care for one another and build each other up in faith
  • Worship God with beauty, dignity and warmth
 
“You shall love the Lord your God ....
and love your neighbour as yourself.”

 

The Church of St. John the Evangelist in Boxmoor was dedicated in its present form on Easter Tuesday, 1874. Today it remains a vibrant centre for Christian worship and fellowship. Our congregations include those who have been life-long members of St. John's as well as those who have recently come to faith and those who are exploring Christianity. Everyone is welcome.

St. John's is one of the three Anglican churches of Boxmoor Parish, along with St. Stephen's, Chaulden and St. Francis', Hammerfield (Glenview Road).

Every year St. John's has special services to mark the festivals of Christmas and Easter together with Mothering Sunday and Harvest Thanksgiving. Details of these are published in our monthly magazine and on the notice boards. We also have a St. John's Festival in September and a Music Festival in November.
