St. J
ohn the Evangelist Episcopal Church is a vibrant, growing parish made up of people who honor their Christian faith; a faith based on scripture, tradition, and fellowship. We are a lay-driven congregation, uniquely traditional and thirsty for spiritual growth. Our strong spirit and compassion are evident in our dynamic Sunday school program, lively choral music, youth sponsored mission trips, and active outreach ministry.
Established as an Episcopal congregation in 1895, the church is located in the beautiful seaside community of Duxbury, MA, a historic, suburban town 30 miles south of Boston. We are blessed with a large number of well-educated and accomplished parishioners. We embrace our youth. We welcome all.
Most of St. John's members were raised as Episcopalians or other Protestant denominations, but many have also come to our parish from the Roman Catholic tradition. We typically hold two services each Sunday, one at 8:00 AM and one at 10:00 AM. The average Sunday attendance is over 300 people. St. John's has more than 300 children currently enrolled in its Christian Education program, the second largest in the Diocese of Massachusetts.
We welcome all!
