Our Parish Community
St. John's parish family consists of about 350 communicants of all ages and walks of life. About 65 of these communicants are under the age of 16. For these children and young adults, a vibrant Christian Formation curriculum and program (Parish, Diocesan, National) is provided throughout the academic year by our Christian Formation Director, Diane Bjorklund.

Adult Education programs: Tools for the Christian Journey every Sunday morning, Education for Ministry, and Small Group Fellowships (eg., Prayer Groups, Bible Study) and Parish Wide Gatherings make St. John's a bustling community throughout the year. Our music program is rich with talent and St. John's choir provides one important way in which ISU students participate in parish life. Parish members, young and old are also active on Facebook - go to the facebook link at the top right-hand side of the page to find postings and lots of activity follow-up photographs.
The Rev. Alexander Aiton is St. John's rector, the Rev. Donald R. Payer is our Deacon, and James R. Tener is the Student Chaplain at St. John's. Jeannie Garcia is our office administrator througout the work week.
Upcoming Events
News and Announcements
At St. John’s Annual meeting in January 2012, the 2011 vestry introduced a list of contact people for the current, active sub-ministries within each of our parish’s five main ministry areas. These lists were included in the annual report and are now posted to the right of the sign-up sheet table in the parish hall. Thank you to all those currently serving as contact persons and to those who have done so in the past.
If you want to be involved in a specific sub-ministry in the parish, please use this new list to identify the person you need to be in touch with....
