Mission Statement

St. John was founded to raise children in Christian faith. We are a family of Christians. We are made part of this universal family through the birth, life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

We seek the unconditional love that is offered through the grace of the Holy Spirit. Along with our ancestors, we make our church a fertile base for spiritual growth.

We lovingly accept each person and gently set boundaries to demonstrate how to grow in Christian faith.

We worship together celebrating the glory and majesty of God to strengthen our faith.

We share with others God’s gifts to us to demonstrate our faith. We educate our children so they grow in their own faith.

We contribute our love and time to anyone in need so that no child of God will ever be alone. In a constantly changing world, St. John will change with the times. As we move into a new century of ministry, we rededicate ourselves to raise more children in Christian faith.
