Welcome!
People
who worship with us at St. John’s often remark to me about
the special sense of lively committed spirit they feel in this congregation
and in the greater Randolph community in and around our hills and little
valleys. It’s true and the spirit runs both ways. It’s like
back in the ‘90s when the downtown of Randolph badly needed revitalization
after three major fires, and we at St. John’s made it our mission
to help see that happen. Or when eight years ago our Pastoral
Care Committee and I started a volunteer chaplaincy at Gifford Medical
Center. This program now has a paid supervising Chaplain and is a model
in the state.
As Christians we live and minister in our community with a searching, open faith which starts with strong, heartfelt, sacramental Prayer Book worship and leads us forth to committed service in and out of the church. We hope you will feel that welcome and spirit of Christ.
- The Rev. Timothy C. Eberhardt, Rector
