St John's Church for Eden Park Beckenham
Hello and Welcome| We are a group of Christians that believe that church has to be rooted in our community and is much more than simply coming together on Sundays. That's why, a few years ago, we changed the emphasis in our name to "Church for Eden Park". It's more a description of our role than our address. |  |

A Meeting Place - Meeting Need - Meeting People  Our long-term vision is for the church premises to lead into the community facilities. | There is something going on here for people in the community most days of the week. We want to build on these activites but recognise that our current halls have limitations. We have a big project underway Cornerstone to develop our site into a modern centre for church and community. We need to raise £1.6m for Phase 1. We already have £500,000 committed by members of the church. Our aim is to raise another £400,000 by Easter 2010. More details, progress, and how you can support us can be found on our Cornerstone pages. |
| We are part of the Church of England in the evangelical tradition, with the Bible and biblical teaching central to our ministry. Since 1932 we have preached the Good News of Jesus and ministered to people in the community in this part of Beckenham and beyond. Nowadays we have around 300 members and on a typical Sunday morning there will be 170 adults and 40 children in church. During the week, many more than that come to our various activities. | |
