St. John’s Spiritual Life Groups nurture the spirit in intentional communities.
In the wider community, we advocate for hunger relief, safe housing, and accessible health services. We pursue our mission through local and global partnerships, personal service, supportive prayer, and financial contributions.
We believe God is revealed in many ways, primarily through Scripture, the wisdom of the church and its history, and our own reason and experience. These are the “tools” we use to search for God.
Wherever you may be in your spiritual journey, we welcome you!
The music program at St. John’s engages people of all ages in a wide range of musical possibilities. Our ensembles provide a sense of belonging, a place where people care about one another. Together we discover what it means to sing and rejoice in the Lord through music.
The ministry of pastoral care is shared by every member of our parish. As Christians in community, we care for one another.
St. John’s ongoing impact relies on you — our parishioners — to commit time, talent, and financial support, to sustain the ministries that improve the lives of our members and the communities we support.
We are so glad you found your way to St John the Evangelist Episcopal Church. Whether you are a long time Episcopalian or have never stepped foot in a church, we welcome you!
“May feels like a literal and metaphorical spring for Big Wonder. We have 27 children enrolled! Each of these children has a unique story, and their families have trusted us with their care. We are finally financially stable, and we continue to grow. We are here to stay!”
“When the day of the funeral arrives, we can all allow ourselves to be fully immersed in the exquisite language and music of the funeral liturgy. A well-planned funeral creates a sacred container for us to be fully liberated from linear time (chronos) so that we can enter fully into God’s time (kairos).”
“Chris’s degree is in art and they’re usually working on some creative artistic project. ‘I’ve also been a fantasy geek for a long time—currently very interested in Tolkein, if anyone wants to talk about that.’”
Help plant container gardens at Hallie Q Brown Community Center! Wednesday, May 22 and Thursday, May 23 from 4-6pm.
All Episcopalians living and worshipping in the eastern metro are invited and encouraged to attend our spring mission area gathering! Saturday, May 18, 9am-2pm.
“There is no greater power than a community discovering
what it cares about.
Ask ‘What is possible?’ not ‘What’s wrong?’ Keep asking.”
“In our world today, the economics of exploitation, conquest, and extraction still hold sway. But the church has not lost its calling to be an alternative household, community, and economic reality.”
O God, our times are in your hand: Look with favor, we pray, on your servants as each of them begins another year.
Singing in the choir brings us unexplainable joy and an emotional fulfillment which is difficult to put into words. It also gives us community and the chance for spiritual union with our fellow choir members and congregants.
