Our Building & Refurbishment plans
The building of the St. John’s Church Centre begun in the autumn of 1967 and was completed by June 1968. The time has now come for us to look towards the refurbishment and enlargement of the building. We are currently working with our architect and have plans for the enlargement of our hall, a new enlarged kitchen, a new meeting/prayer room, additional toilets and a new entrance. We are currently applying to trusts and charities for financial support towards this challenging project.

For more information contact Robert Masters (654998).


Uniformed groups
We have a good working relationship with the local uniformed groups who regularly attend Parade Services at St. John’s.

Young Church Groups
Over many years we have very successfully worked with children and young people. We meet during term time at 10am every Sunday (apart from the 1st Sunday in the month when we worship together at the All Age Service which our young people usually take part in leading).

Our Cool Club welcomes the younger members whilst 10@10 caters for those in Year 6 and above.

Each of the groups provide good quality Christian teaching in a fun and relevant way. In addition to our Sunday morning groups we run a number of special events during the year such as Easter and Christmas Workshops and a week long Bible based Summer Holiday Club, New Year parties, BBQ’s, plus lots more.

For more information contact Sue Pittman (626453).

Prayer Group
Prayer is central to the life of St. John’s. We have an informal Prayer Group which meets within the church on the first and third Saturday mornings of each month between 9am and 10am. All are welcome as we commit all aspects of our churches mission and ministry to God.

For more information contact Linda Russ (634781).

Home Groups
An important part of our church life is meeting regularly within small groups to look together at the Bible and discuss how we apply it to our busy and diverse lives here in Billericay. Home Groups meet at different locations and at different times on different weekdays.

For more information contact Julie Todman (623809).

Parent & Toddler Group
Our Parent and Toddler group meets at the Church Centre each Monday afternoon (during term time) from 1.15pm until 2.45pm. The session includes free play, craft, singing and stories. Plus refreshments and a chat for both parents/carers and children! We ask for a contribution of £1 per adult.

Midweek Break Over 60’s Club
Our club for the over 60’s meets at the Church Centre on the first and third Wednesday afternoons of each month between 2pm and 4pm.
