"We give you thanks, most gracious God, for the beauty of earth and sky and sea; for the richness of mountains, plains, and rivers; for the songs of birds and the loveliness of flowers. We praise you for these good gifts, and pray that we may safeguard them for our posterity. Grant that we may continue to grow in our grateful enjoyment of your abundant creation."

Thank you for visiting the web page of St. John the Baptist Episcopal Church. We hope that after looking over the wealth of information posted on this site, that you will join us for worship services. St. John's is a faith community seeking deeper relationship with God and with one another through worship, education, outreach, and discipleship.

On this web page you will find information about our common life together as followers of Jesus Christ. Everything we do at St. John's--our worship, education, and outreach--is about the work of forming disciples of Jesus Christ. Who we are as a people of God is informed by a story. It is the story of God's people and the wonderful relationship to which we are called as we live into our Christian identity.

If you are seeking a faith community in which to journey toward greater relationship with God, please know that you are always welcomed at St. John's. If you would like more information about any aspect of our parish life, or would like to discuss your own spiritual journey, please do not hesitate to call (717) 848-1862 or e-mail.
