Ministry and Engagement

In the Orthodox Church, we participate in the energies of God. Our salvation is a synergistic relationship with the Creator of all things! Jesus Christ, the Son of God is the perfect example of servant and master and it is by Him that we are able to serve in any capacity. 

If you are interested in serving, please consider the following ministries and reach out to the leaders of those ministries (by clicking on the image associated with the ministry). If you have a talent or calling that is not listed below, please reach out to any of our clergy and let them know!

St. John the Baptist Orthodox Church utilizes Planningcenter.com to organize our ministries. If you have a smartphone, download the app!
