Listening and sharing
In all our lives there can be times of stress and need. The church is there to be called on, especially when far from family and home you might need a listening ear. There are many organisations for Anglophones in the Var and the church of St. John’s is very much a source of friendship and support for everyone, very much including those who have no previous religious framework.
The church today
Saint John’s today is a lively church, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere, building a sense of community for the Anglophones of the region, where people come to meet and find spiritual refreshment.

The English Language Library in Saint-Raphael is in St John’s Church. It is accessed by entering through the gate closest to the railway bridge. The library is open from September until the end of June on Tuesday’s from 10:30 am until 12:30 pm.
