St. John’s is a lively parish focused on the centre of the Christian faith in the life and teachings of Jesus and in the Confession and hope-filled cry of the church around the world that “Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again.”

 

As a parish of the Diocese of Edmonton in the Anglican Church of Canada, we utilize the two main prayer books of our communion — the Book of Common Prayer and the Book of Alternative Services — and worship in both ‘classic’ and more ‘contemporary’ modes in terms of music and language.

Following Christ in 

Word. Care. Prayer.

& 

Mission.

This statement is what St. John the Evangelist Anglican Church has been built upon.

Those who worship at SJE come from a variety of diverse backgrounds but as we come together Sunday by Sunday - Week by Week, we are united.

United by our common faith in Christ and in our desire to hear and to follow Christ’s way in the world.

​

This means we are invited to become: 

​

Active in hearing the Word through Holy Scripture.

Active in CARING - for one another and for neighbours near and far.

Active in PRAYER - as individuals & with the whole church through the Sunday liturgy.  Active in MISSION - as we seek to reflect the love of Christ throughout our lives.

 

This activity will be lived out distinctly by each of us: sometimes quietly, sometimes obviously, but at all times (we pray!) with an awareness of the Grace and Peace of Christ among us.
