Welcome to St. John's community. We are honored to serve Christ, and to open our doors to all. Please feel free to join us for worship. St. John's can trace its history to the founding of Jamestown. The parish is over 350 years old, and the church building itself has stood for 2 and a half centuries. St. John's saw the American Revolution and served as a camp ground for troops during the Civil War. Through it all, St. John's has been a place of worship and a home for those seeking communion with Christ. St. John's has a rich and abiding history. Today, it is as it was... a place to find and be found by Christ.

St. John's is now listed on the Historical Marker Database

It is nice to see interest in the life and history of St. John's. I received a note from a gentleman who had visited a couple days ago to look through the graveyard and look at headstones. As he was eating lunch I had the opportunity to chat with him and find out a little of his story. He shared with me that he comes by often and sits in the yard between the church and the parish house. Please feel free to check out his post and share with others.

Faithfully,
Les+
