Welcome to St. John's, Elmswell

St John’s is a friendly, evangelical church in Elmswell, Suffolk, mid-way between Bury St Edmunds and Stowmarket. Our goal is to know Christ and make him known as we serve our community. Our services include a mix of contemporary worship songs and traditional hymns and reveal our reliance on the Bible as the Word of God and our trust in the Holy Spirit. We are strongly committed to introducing and building people up in the Christian faith through Bible teaching, prayer, worship, discipling and friendship.

As a church family, we aim to:
• Demonstrate God's love to the world
• Declare the good news of Jesus Christ
• Depend on God as part of his family

We are a broad range of people including families with young and grown-up children, pensioners, young professionals and many others. Whoever you are, of whatever age, you're very welcome to join us.

Whether you are interested in our history, wish to get married, have a child baptised, want to investigate Christianity or are looking for a place to worship and meet other Christians, we would love to see you. Why not have a look around our site to see who we are and what we do?

There's some fine flintwork around the church exterior, with some amazing patterns and designs. The church overlooks a valley, with the impressive spire of Woolpit church to the south. The graveyard contains some unusual old graves, with Memento Mori skeletons and cherubs. The church has some almshouses, built in the early 1600’s by Robert Gardiner, once Elizabeth I's Lord Chief Justice in Ireland. The church has a small car park for visitors

Sadly closed. Three phone numbers are provided to 'arrange a time' to visit. Pleasant from without, parking difficult.
