Welcome
St. John’s Church is an Anglican/Episcopal, Christian community worshipping through the power of the Holy Spirit.
We welcome you to our church family!
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

- For an Epiphany Blessing, chalk your door with "holy graffiti"
This ancient tradition is done during Epiphany to bless your home and those who live and visit there. The letters C, M, B come from the traditional names for the wise men: Caspar, Melchior, and Balthazar, whose arrival at Mary and Joseph’s home is celebrated on the Epiphany.
If you would like Rev. Carolyn to come and bless your home as we begin the new year, please contact the church office.
If you would like to read more about this recently revived Episcopal service, see the article linked HERE.
