Over 100 years of Discovering Christ and sharing his message...

Since our Parish foundation in 1865, St John the Evangelist Horsham has been at the heart of this growing community of prayer. With Mass every day and many other inclusive activities, we can confidently say that the living stones of the Catholic Church in Horsham are lively, committed and diverse.

We have a mission to share the Good News of Jesus Christ with all whom we meet; and we believe in the vocation of the Catholic Church to bring people life and salvation in Jesus

Christ through the sacraments, the scriptures, the teaching of the Church and prayer.

May Almighty God bless you all, and may St John, beloved disciple and evangelist pray for us.
