It's an oasis of  tranquillity and peace for people who come here, to worship, for their life's rites of passage, or simply to spend a little time with God and the past worshippers here, famous and not-so-famous.</h4> <p style="text-align: justify;"><meta charset="UTF-8" /></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><meta charset="UTF-8" /></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><br /> The worship in St John’s <img alt="St John's Boldre" src="/content/pages/uploaded_images/13.jpg" style="float:left; height:40%; margin:10px; width:40%" />is traditional and contemporary Anglican liturgy, led by a choir. You'll find Choral Matins still offered here, with Choral Evensong once a month, and a Common Worship Eucharist (Holy Communion) twice a month. It has a friendly, supportive congregation whose members do really care for one another, and who are always pleased to welcome others who come from time to time, often from a distance. If you enjoy singing, why not join the choir? </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Refreshments are always served after the Sunday services. </p> <p><br /> Christianity is not a risk-free, safety zone; mean-spirited, narrow-minded and self-serving. It puts the first last, the last first. It declares the poor blessed, shoves and squeezes the wealthy through<br /> the eye of a needle, turns the other cheek, walks the second mile and forgives not<br /> once or, twice, three times or seven times, but seventy times seven. It declares<br /> crucifixion a victory, bad Friday becomes Good Friday, death life, the impossible<br /> possible. it is simple and free - and will cost you everything. The foolish learn wisdom, and love is discovered to be the ultimate virtue, life’s only <i>raison d’etre</i>. </p> <p><img alt="" src="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LO3Mj7MzBw" style="margin: 5px;" /></p> <p><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/_LO3Mj7MzBw?rel=0" width="640"></iframe><br /> Video by kind permission of Nick Swann</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </main> <footer class="main"> <style> .e958ed9b8-bbf4-4f8b-818c-6efb723d8524-footer-row-0 { display: flex;
