Who We Are

Welcome to St John's!

St John the Evangelist is a parish church of the Anglican Diocese of Ottawa. We are part of the Anglican Church of Canada, a member church of the Anglican Communion.

St John’s welcomes all people and is open and inclusive. We are a lively, caring community of seekers, doubters, and lovers of God, grappling together with the great questions of life and faith.

We are guided by the Five Marks of Mission:

1. To proclaim the Good News of the Kingdom
2. To teach, baptize and nurture new believers
3. To respond to human need by loving service
4. To seek to transform unjust structures of society, to challenge violence of every kind and to pursue peace and reconciliation
5. To strive to safeguard the integrity of creation and sustain and renew the life of the earth
