What we seek...

St. John's is a spiritually and socially engaged parish and we believe that everyone has a unique gift to offer. We value the ability to reach consensus over any system that creates winners and losers within the parish.

We seek a priest who has a sense of joy in liturgy and worship of all kinds and sees music and art as a means to enhance the worship experience. We hope that our Rector will be involved with the outreach and fellowship of the parish and active in the life of the community Listening is important to us! We seek someone who lovingly engages with those both inside our parish and in the community.

We desire a priest who is a thought-provoking homilist; someone who can clearly articulate the good news of the Gospels and their relevance in our day to day lives -- even when that takes us outside of our comfort zones

We want a priest who will walk with us on our journey, regardless of where we are; a priest who will respect the dignity and value of every person and bring an open-minded, passionate commitment to truth, inclusivity and the importance of each individual's spiritual journey -- someone who will work shoulder to shoulder with us in the hard work it takes to ensure that ALL are ALWAYS welcomed.
