Welcome to St John the Baptist Church, Kingston Vale
I am Rev. Mandy Beck. I have the privilege of being the minister of this beautiful church with its wonderful, welcoming congregation. St John’s is a place people come to celebrate and have fun, and where they find support in the challenges life brings. The diversity of people who connect with this church, both in worship and through numerous community activities, is enriching to all of us.
