Sadly, the church building is temporarily closed for public worship
Further to the government’s announcement on 4th January, the PCC have now decided that St John’s should close temporarily for public worship. Although attended services are still allowed to take place in St John’s (which is Covid-secure) – and so far as we know there has been no transmission of the virus at St John’s – we are aware of the high number of cases in the local area, and want to do everything we can to help reduce this figure.
In the meantime, worship continues online, and our weekly service will be available every Sunday at 10am on YouTube, Facebook & Soundcloud. If you know somebody without internet access who would like to listen to our services, please contact us (
email admin@stjohnswestbyfleet.org.uk or phone 01932 342263 and leave a message) and we will make a CD available to them.
Our regular Sparklers videos continue to be released every Friday on
Facebook.
If anybody is in need of prayer or pastoral support, please
contact us.
The situation will be reviewed by the PCC on 8th February.

The service sheet for each week will be available below, and also emailed with the service notification email which will usually be circulated each Saturday during lockdown.

Can we pray for you?
There are occasions when each one of us feels a need for the support of prayer, personally. And during these difficult and taxing times, there may be any number of additional reasons why any of us might want someone to pray with or for us.
St John’s will always offer the opportunity to request personal prayer, but perhaps not everyone is aware of this? There is no need to explain why you need the prayer (unless you choose) – just ask. Send an email to admin@stjohnswestbyfleet.org.uk or telephone either 01932 343128 (Hazel Craig) or 01932 851830 (Geoff Jones) and they will make sure that your request is made known to the Ministry Team. Be assured that you, or those you are seeking prayer for, will be prayed for. The same goes for other needs you may have – please get in touch if you need help and we will see what can be done.

Welcome to St. John’s, the Parish Church of West Byfleet. We aim to make it a place to discover God in our lives, and where we can celebrate the events of our family and community. We are working for a caring, open, accessible and attractive church with worship at its centre, and seek to help people of all ages to grow in the Christianfaith. If you are visiting West Byfleet or are new to the area, please do come to one of our services – we would love to meet you. Here’s where to find us.
If you are looking for a church to worship in regularly or just occasionally, you will be assured of a very warm welcome at St John’s. Our congregation includes people of all ages and backgrounds who enjoy meeting for worship and socialising afterwards. If you have not been to church for some time, don’t worry – our Stewards will find a place for you and help you through the service.
Many people know where St John’s Church is located (the A245 between Cobham and Woking) but not so many take the time to visit. Those who do are often surprised at both the simplicity and beauty of the architecture. If you have the time, do spend a few moments inside the church – it is open daily from 9 am – 5 pm.
