Welcome to St John the Baptist, Loughton

We believe that St John's is a church with a living past, a vibrant present and a hope-filled future. And you’re welcome to connect with us online or in person.

We hope everyone can feel able to be part of the community here – diverse ages and backgrounds – as together we explore the deep meaning of the Gospel of Jesus Christ; as people have done here at this place for over a hundred years, the spritual heart of Loughton

Ours is an open church in spirit and practice: everyone is welcome. That’s an important value to us. We open ourselves to God in word and sacrament on Sundays,  enriched by the music of the Anglican choral tradition. We keep the building open during the day as a place where people can come to pray, sit, rest or just ponder and be still.
