"St John's Episcopal Church strives to teach God's Word and do God's Work to improve the spiritual and physical well being of its congregation and the surrounding community."
St. John's has a long and vibrant history in the Bedford community.We are respectfully grounded in the Anglican church tradition which includes the holy scripture and reason to explore and comprehend God's works. Whoever you are, Whatever brings you here, We welcome you in the name of Jesus Christ. We know ours to be one of God's Houses, and us to be some of God's people. We invite and encourage you to join us for worship.

The service is conducted in modern language, and includes scripture readings, a sermon, prayers and communion. *Children are offered the opportunity to participate in Children's Chapel during the 10:00 a.m. service.
