Felbridge is right on the boundary of the County of Surrey and the Diocese of Southwark. It has close links with East Grinstead and because many of the congregation of St John's come from outside the parish, it makes it possible to sustain a wide range of church activities for a small village of about 1000 inhabitants.
There are children's and youth groups, home groups for Bible study, prayer and fellowship. The Sunday services are intended to be accessible to people without a church background, and the focus is on teaching the Bible and showing its relevance to life today.
