We all share in the joy of celebrating Father John's many years of leadership and ministry to each of us, and every parishioner of our beloved St. John the Baptist Church. May God grant you good health and joy in the Lord, knowing that you have served faithfully and lovingly all of the Holy People of God throughout your entire priestly vocation "after the order of Melchizedek" Psalm 110:4.
About Us
read moreThe saints of the church, who are alive in Christ, are not only models whose lives and devotion to God we should strive to emulate, but also are intercessors to God. Individual faithful and parish communities are called upon to take a patron saint, in the tradition of the Holy Orthodox Church. Early churches were built at the site of the graves of many of the Holy Martyrs. These communities were dedicated with the name of the martyr, and he or she was called upon by the community who worshiped there to act as an intercessor and protector for the faithful.
