This Sunday, August 10th, at both services, we will have a special blessing for our students and teachers for the upcoming school year. Students, bring your backpacks with you to be blessed, and teachers, please come be present so we may bless you and the work you will do this school year.

Mark your calendars. On August 24, we will return to have Sunday worship at Haut Gap Middle School, and our services will recombine into a single 10AM service.

Thank you to everyone who helped facilitate Sunday worship during the summer while we couldn't use Haut Gap, and thank you to all of our members who faithfully continued to attend every Sunday in a less comfortable environment.

Each semester, as part of our domestic outreach, St. John's Parish Church has the honor of providing dinner for The Citadel Cadets at St. Alban's Chapel. This semester they asked us to host the first Monday chapel dinner of the year, with one of the largest crowds of the year in attendance. Click below to see how you can get involved with this ministry.

Thank you to everyone who gave to the gift card drive and volunteered to bring and/or serve food to the teachers and support staff at Haut Gap Middle School.

Sign up to assist our nursery and Sunday school classes. They're loads of fun and all the materials are prepared for you ahead of time. All you need to do is show up and have fun with the kids.

The Lay Readers serve during our Sunday service as well as any other worship services we have throughout the year. Most Sundays we have two Lay Readers to read the lessons and psalm as well as lead us in the Prayers of the People. This ministry often goes hand in hand with being a Eucharistic minister to help with communion; however this is not always the case. For more information or to express interest in becoming a Lay Reader, contact Sally Dixon.

Dear Heavenly Father,

Together we are united with the saints of the household of God; built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Jesus Christ himself being the cornerstone. In Christ alone our church is being joined together, and is growing into a holy temple of the Lord by the Spirit. By Your wisdom may we discern what You want us to build; Through Jesus Christ our Lord and the power of the Holy Spirit,

Amen.
