      Looking OUT as we share the Gospel

    • The Church exists for Mission

      Mission is defined in the dictionary as "a specific task with which a person or group is charge." Mission is not just part of what Church does, it is the reason for Church - it is the task for which we have been built, and so our outlook on mission needs to be exactly that - OUT-looking!

       

      Our aim is to have every aspect of St. John ministry include this outward focus, and seek God on how we are able to get involved with what he is already doing in and amongst us to spread the Good News.

       

      Through partners in ministry, community and mission we strive to develop relationships, locally and globally, which help to share God's love and the echo in his kingdom.

       

       

    • Living an OUT life

      Sharing Jesus with the least, the last, and the lost

      God holds the whole world in his hands, and we are but a part of it. As followers of Jesus we take up the call to share the love of God with the whole of his creation.

       

      Some of the ways we as St. John do this are shown below.

      Neighbor to Neighbor

      St. John works to be a friend and helper to our community neighbors through hands-on projects and relationships. Our backpack project, with the local elementary school, helps children in need have food over spring break.

      Cold Weather Shelter

      During the week fo Christmas we host the Cold Weather Shelter.

      This ministry serves Howard County singles and families who are without a home during the winter. Guests are pre- registered and supported by Grassroots, a local year round service to the homeless. The shelter is open 6 PM to 7 AM daily. We will stay open all day on Christmas, and a few additional hours on the Sunday morning.
