Knowing & Making Christ Known
Welcome To Our Church Home!
Consider http://www.imby.net/easter for a thoughtful Lenten discipline.
In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, this church opens wide her doors and offers welcome to everyone.
If you need a Savior; if you are spiritually weak and seek rest; if you mourn and long for comfort; if you struggle and desire victory; or are a stranger and want fellowship; if you hunger and thirst after righteousness - then St. John's is the right place for you. We don't allow any perfect people to attend - so you'll fit right in!
Our Church
We are a joyful, Christ centered fellowship of believers within the Anglican tradition. Our stated purpose is to "know Christ and to make Him known." As a result, we enjoy a rich and lively parish life and actively support various missions and outreach programs.
Our Mission Statement
Being rooted and grounded in love (Ephesians 3:17), we commit ourselves to knowing Christ and making Him known. With joy, humility and gratitude for God's saving grace in our Lord Jesus Christ, we devote ourselves to well-ordered family life, fellowship and worship - all in submission to godly authority. God being our helper, we dedicate ourselves to works of mercy, love and witness. May we glorify God, enjoy Him and prove zealous for the good works that please Him.

Our People
St. John the Evangelist’s congregants come from all walks of life and all kinds of traditions. Some are former members from St. John's Episcopal Church in Huntingdon Valley. Some come from Presbyterian backgrounds, some from non-denominational backgrounds. College graduates, landscapers, computer experts, doctors, office workers, electricians and chemical engineers - they all worship together at St. John's. Young families, singles, and retired folks - they're all part of the family.
Our Affiliation
Our parish is a member of the Anglican Mission in America. The Anglican Mission is a mission work of the Episcopal Province of Rwanda. AMiA is focusing on planting new Anglican congregations from coast to coast throughout the United States.
