St. John’s Vision is:
"Friendship with Christ in our time."
God has called us his friends; friends, at their best, lay down their lives for each other. They “will the same, and reject the same.” They are bound together not by accident, but by a choice to love. Friendship is a foretaste of heaven, where we are all called to go, because the God who reigns in heaven is a communion or friendship of Three Divine Persons. Finally, the concept of friendship is a mindful reference to our patron, St. John the Baptist, who referred to himself as “…the Bridegroom’s friend, who rejoices at his voice” (Jn 3:29).
The prepositional phrase “in our time” refers to the unique moment in which we find ourselves as the Church.We are now much closer to the reality of the early Church, when the Apostles went out into the world that was hostile to the faith. We desire that every follower of Jesus in our parish and school have this basic assumption in mind—not as something to be gloomy about, but rather to be grateful for, because it gives everyone an adventure to share in together.

A Great School!
"St. John’s School has been nothing but a great school with a great community and support system. It is a place where my kids can be themselves, learn morals and values, be challenged, treat others and be treated with respect, and come out a better person. My kids have loved St. John’s School and Preschool! This has been and continues to be a great foundation for our children and their education!" ~St. John’s Alum and current parent

Our parish

The parish is not an outdated institution; precisely because it possesses great flexibility, it can assume quite different contours depending on the openness and missionary creativity of the pastor and the community.
