St John’s is the spiritual home of the parish of Oakfield, set in the eastern deanery of Ryde on the Isle of Wight.

St John’s was consecrated in the name of St John the Baptist on 18^th July 1843. In the years that followed the church was expanded to accommodate the growing parish. Since then its walls have bear witness to centuries of prayer.

Holy Communion services are held at 10.30am on Thursday and 8am on Sunday, the parish Eucharist is at 10.30am on Sundays except the second Sunday which is our family service. All major festivals are celebrated, baptisms are usually held on the first Sunday of the month during the Eucharist, and weddings are held throughout the year.

We are a warm welcoming community.

To book an appointment for baptisms and weddings, please call into the church on Tuesday evenings between 6.45pm-7.15pm. To book the church hall, please either contact Elizabeth on 01983563369 or call into the hall on Fridays between 12.30pm-2pm.
