Our Stories
What God is doing in our lives
“I first came to St John’s as a student – and it has given me a home and a community for
16 years since then. In that time there have been all sorts of changes in my life: Being a student, starting work, moving house, getting married, having children.... and in all of these the church family has provided the friendship, love, care and support that I have needed.”
“Several times we have thought about moving away from Egham, but each time we have realised how pivotal the church and the church family are to our lives as a family, and have decided to stay. St John’s is a community to which we contribute and from which we gain a huge amount of spiritual and practical love, support and challenge.
As a family we range in age from 4 to (nearly) 40 and each of us has a place that is right-for-us within that community.

 By being a part of both practical and spiritual ministries in the church God keeps showing me that “As the body without spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead” (James 2:26).
Being a part of the church family means sharing all the joys and challenges of this incredible spiritual journey with friends, and coming together on Sundays to enjoy lively worship and sound teaching.

The great thing about St Johns is the people. I have found the best way to get to know people has been to join one of the Life Groups, go for coffee after the church service and to get involved in the life of the church in as many ways as I could.
Very importantly for me has been the wonderful youth work. My daughters have been encouraged in their faith right from their toddler years up to their teens and have made lots of friends along the way.
