The Search for our 20th Rector

On September 27, 2024, St. John’s began the process of calling its 20th rector. This process is ongoing, as we discern and pray for inspiration in connecting our congregants with a faithful priest to guide and assist us in sharing the light of Christ. Please return to this page for future updates and information

Rector Search Prayer

Lord of abundant love, Creator of all that is good and provider of all our needs, who has always raised up prophets and priests to lead your people, foremost of all, Christ the Good Shepherd.  You have enlivened and surprised your people by the Holy Spirit and know better than we do the needs of this parish

Bless and guide the hearts and minds of the search committee, the vestry, and the parish granting us the gifts of wisdom, discernment, listening, trust,  and mutual regard that we might be led to to a faithful priest who will care for your people and equip us for our collective journey, guiding us closer to you through liturgy and service.  In Jesus’ name we pray.  Amen.

St. John’s Welcomes You

Welcome to Saint John’s Episcopal Church in Springfield, Missouri. In this beautiful gothic-style building, erected in the latter part of the 19th century, we find God, worshiping God in the beauty of holiness. Whether it’s called Mass, or The Lord’s Supper, or The Holy Eucharist, Jesus Christ is as present with us in the bread and wine as he was with his first disciples 2,000 years ago.
We welcome all people, with no exceptions. All we ask is that you be open to the revelation of God that has been given to the Church through the life, death, and resurrection of Christ Jesus. We are named for Saint John, “the disciple whom Jesus loved,” who wrote of Jesus as the light that shines in the darkness, and which the darkness has never overcome. That light shines in the hearts of our diverse membership. We want nothing more than to share that light with you.
Join us for Sunday service beginning at 10:30 a.m., or Saturday at 4:00 p.m.
