St john the baptist, Burford exists to Grow in Christ, Love his people and Reach the Burford Benefice and Beyond

We hold a number of Sunday Services and our hope is that everyone is able to worship in a style that is comfortable for them, whether traditional liturgy or livelier modern worship. Whatever the style, we aim to keep the substance constant: faithful bible teaching, dependant prayer and heartfelt singing.

The 8.00 Communion Service follows the traditional liturgy from the Book of Common Prayer and is held on Principal Feast days

The 9.30 Service uses a combination of the traditional and modern liturgy in a traditional setting. Traditional hymns are led by an organ and/or choir.

The 11.00 Service uses modern liturgy in a modern setting. Contemporary songs are led by a band each week. Children and Youth clubs run alongside this service.

Holy Communion. We welcome all who love the Lord to join us in the sharing of bread and wine at His table, although we will happily offer you a blessing if you would prefer. Gluten-free wafers or non-alcoholic wine are available.
