The ancient symbol of the rising eagle is said to have been assigned to St. John because his gaze pierced further into the mysteries of Heaven than that of any man

From the 
Vicar

Welcome to St. John’s!  We are a community of varying ethnic origins, liturgical traditions, economic levels and theological perspectives, all working together to enrich our Christian journey. We like to recognize and celebrate God at work around us.  We search honestly together for meaning in life, so no questions are out of place here.  We are sustained by each other and by Christ’s presence in our deepest concerns.  Our hearts and our doors are always open to newcomers, visitors and passersby.

The eagle is the ancient symbol for our namesake, the writer of the Gospel According to John.  It is the symbol adopted for our church, signifying that God's power can lift us up as on eagle's wings and bear us through both joy and sorrow.  Working within a parish community that cares what goes on both inside and outside its walls, God is truly doing that.

Faithfully,
The Rev. David Simmons
Vicar and Campus Minister
