Ministry of the Week

Global Mission

Jesus said, "All authority in Heaven and earth has been given to me, therefore, go and make disciples of all nations..." (Matt. 28:18-19). Whenever we obey God's call to be disciples who make disciples, we experience the blessing of witnessing first-hand how the gospel makes a real difference in the world.

Talk to one of our mission teams who recently visited Uganda and Peru in the Connection Corridor on Sunday to see what St John's is doing and learn how you can show your support.

A Prayer for our Parish

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.
