Welcome
St. John’s Church is an Anglican/Episcopal, Christian community worshipping through the power of the Holy Spirit for over 200 years.
St. John’s is much more than a Sunday morning worship experience. It is a family that worships, prays, serves, studies, and has fun together and we invite you to join us in making our family, your family.
If you do not have a church home and would like to make St. John’s your parish of choice; or have a need our church family can help with, please contact our Parish Administrator, Jeannette, at the church office (315) 393-5470

Announcements
Sunday Service on May 29th
Please join us for our service on Sunday, May 29th at 9 am. This is the Seven Sunday of Easter, the final Sunday in the season of Easter. It is Memorial Day weekend and there will be Sunday School.
Masks are now optional but we will continue distancing by sitting in the pews marked with a green ribbon. We are coming to the altar rail for communion with options for sharing the cup, intincting, or, receiving only the host. As always, if you are most comfortable staying in your pew, communion will be brought to you.
Not everyone is ready to come back to church and no one should come if they are unwell or have been with someone who has tested positive for the corona virus. We will continue to make the service available Facebook Live. Click to access our page. You do not need a Facebook account to view the service.
Bible Study - 10:30 on Thursdays
All are welcome on Thursdays at 10:30 am for any or all gatherings as discussions are meaningful and wide ranging, even if you haven't had a chance to do the reading. We have begun a study of the Gospel of Luke. For May 26th, we are reading Chapter 5. All are also welcome to join us at 9:30 am in the Chapel for our Thursday Eucharist.
Join us for Sunday School -- It Makes "Sundays Cool"!
This year we are following a new curriculum for our Children's Sunday program from WorkshopCycles. Each 5-week theme is presented through different activities each week -- music, arts and crafts, story-telling, drama and cooking, all very similar to a VBS experience.
Our new program focusing on "The Beatitudes" begins on Sunday, May 1st.
We hope the children will join us each Sunday, meeting in the Parish Hall before the Sunday Service begins in the Church. As is our tradition, the children will join our service after the Peace in order to participate in the Eucharist.
We have completed our first five series: "What is Worship: Teaching Children about the Book of Common Prayer", "What Makes My Church Special", our Advent series -- "Emanuel-God with Us" focusing on preparation and gifts,"Pray without Ceasing" and, "The Mystery of Easter".
Food Pantry Distribution - EARLY DATE IN MAY!
St. John's Food Pantry is held on the last Tuesday of each month from 9:30 am to 11:30 am. Come to the parking lot off Franklin Street. Please wear a mask and maintain social distancing during distribution.
Note: Next distribution is Tuesday, May 24, 2022. THIS IS ONE WEEK EARLY DUE TO THE MEMORIAL DAY HOLIDAY.
Non-perishable food or monetary donations in support of this mission are always welcome.

Web Site Issue
The host site vendor for our website company catastrophically lost most of the content of over 3000 church sites -- including St. John's. We are in the process of restoring and rebuilding the site. Please be patient as we continue this work. If you see something that needs to be corrected, please use the "Email Web Admin" link in the left panel.
