St John the Baptist Church, also known as St John's Roman Catholic Church, is located in Perth, Perth and Kinross, Scotland. It is a Roman Catholic congregation, based on Melville Street, to the north of the city centre. Completed in 1832, it is now a Category C listed building.{{Historic Environment Scotland |num=LB39307|desc=St John's RC Church Melville Street}}

A high altar and a new sacristy were added to the church in 1848, and eight years later it was lengthened by {{convert|37|feet}}. A traceried window was inserted at that time.

In 1892, its roof was raised over the older portion, and its apse completed, the work of Andrew Heiton.

Its parish includes the church of St Mary Magdalene's on Glenearn Road, and it serves the central and northern parts of the Perth, as well as the rural parts north and east of the city.[https://www.stjohns-perth.org.uk/ St John's official website]

The church is part of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Dunkeld, which covers east central Scotland. Its priest, since 1998, is the Very Rev. Steven Canon Mulholland.
