St John ’ s Boxmoor celebrates its 150th Jubilee
On Sunday 5 May a very joyous Jubilee Eucharist , with the Lord Bishop of St Albans , was attended by a full congregation and many former vicars and ministers , and the Mayor of Dacorum , Cllr William Allen with his wife Annie . It was delightful to see the return of so many people who have helped to shape St John ' s in the last 30 years or so , but we remembered those who went before and those who were unable to be with us on the day . It was a celebration of who we are as a Church , how we worship , and how we love and pray for one another , and for this community .
The celebrations continue , with the Jubilee Exhibition , from 27 – 30 June . St John ’ s has hosted the milestone events in the lives of so many Boxmoor people during its history . Our exhibition aims to chart the first 150 years of the life of the current building , using flower arrangements created
by our very talented arrangers , photographs , parish registers and stories , through Baptisms , Weddings and Funerals ( Hatching , Matching and Dispatching ).
If you , or a family member were married or baptised at St John ’ s , and would like to contribute , please send any pictures to SJB150 @ stjohnsboxmoor . org . uk or leave them in the Office . They will be copied and become part of a digital display to be shown during the Exhibition .
Please do come along and enjoy the insight into the life of St John ’ s and a bit of Boxmoor history !
Refreshments will be served throughout the Exhibition .
