If St John’s is your spiritual home and you worship regularly at the church, then there are three reasons why you should put your name on the St John’s Electoral Roll:
- Electoral Rolls provide an indication of the membership of the Church of England and the strength of the Church, both locally and nationally. Putting your name on the roll is an act of commitment to your local church – to St John’s – and to the Church of England as a whole.
- Joining the Electoral Roll opens the way for greater involvement in the life of the Church, at parish, deanery, diocesan, and national levels. It demonstrates a willingness to help shape the future of the Church and to use your voting rights to influence how it is run. By joining the St John’s Electoral Roll, you become entitled to vote at and participate in St John’s Annual Parochial Church Meeting (APCM).
- Putting your name on the Electoral Roll is an important statement of witness, a step along the path of discipleship. It is putting your name to your faith.
If you are not already on the St John’s Electoral Roll, and feel ready to do so, then we would encourage you to join the Electoral Roll.
