The Parish operates a number of faith & prayer-based groups and courses. Like-minded people join together for a variety of reasons - click on the tabs below for more details. To find out more, please contact the Parish Office:
As a parish, we strive to offer practical assistance to those in need. Our team need volunteers who are, above all, caring and compassionate. We want people who are good listeners, able to keep confidences and who are respectful of others. We are open to anyone who accepts the Christian ethos and commits to expressing their love for God through personal service to their neighbour.
St. John’s does not once again have its own SVP Conference. However, a small group is meeting with forming a Conference in mind. Contact the office if you would like to be part of this venture.
The J&P/CAFOD Group reflects upon and studies the major issues of our time. Visiting speakers and social events focus on particular issues and raise awareness of them throughout the parish. You can support the Group by getting involved, but also by supporting financially. Contact the Parish Office for more details.
A small prayer group meets in the Lady Chapel 10.30-11.00am most Tuesdays.
For upcoming Pilgrimage opportunities, please look out for information at the back of the church or in the weekly newsletter.
The Order of the Knights of St. Columba (KSC) is an organised body of Catholic men dedicated to supporting Bishops and Clergy in their dioceses and parishes.
Membership of the Order gives men an opportunity to develop themselves more fully as practising Catholics by living the virtues of Charity, Unity and Fraternity, and by contributing to the Church’s mission of moral and social outreach.
Locally, the KSC works to support St. Raphael’s Hospice in Cheam by organising a sponsored walk to supplement their government funding. Over 3 decades, more than £125k has been raised for the Hospice, and our efforts to raise even more will continue.
We meet in the Parish hall of St. Christopher’s, Dallas Road, Cheam Village on the 3rd Tuesday of every month. Any Parishioner interested in the KSC are cordially welcomed to join us at one of our meetings as a guest.
