Morning Prayer and Bible Study

Looking for a way to recharge your spiritual life?
​Join your St. John's family for these mid-week devotions​
On Wednesday mornings, St. John’s celebrates
Morning Prayer at 9:30am and
Bible Study from 10am to 11am. 
​Both will be held via Zoom - Please contact the
​Parish Office if you are interested in joining.

Veteran/Military Friendly Congregation

St. John's is designated by  the
Military Chaplains Association
​as a Veteran/Military Friendly Congregation. 
Ministry to active military members, veterans, and their 
families allows us the opportunity to support them in their spiritual needs.  This outreach ministry offers us a way to tell the Good News to our many neighbors in the military and to give the opportunities for us to use their spiritual gifts while they are with us.

We Are Here For You!



​As the pandemic restrictions loosen and we carefully gather in person at St. John's,
we are here for you!   
If you, a family member, neighbor or a friend are interested in celebrating a significant event in your spiritual life, please know that you are welcome. 
We would be honored to be a part of your Baptism,
Holy Communion, Marriage, Renewal of Vows,
or Quinceañera.  
At St. John's, no matter who you are
​or where you are on your spiritual journey - 
you are welcome here!
