The South Belfast Area Service was held in St John's on Wednesday 17 October 2012. As our Rector had to conduct a funeral service elsewhere, the Revd Louise Stewart, a former Curate in St John's and now Rector of our neighbouring parish St Polycarp's & the Church of the Epiphany, celebrated the Eucharist and gave an address about everyone having talents which can be used. Afterwards members enjoyed a cup of tea in the hall.
