A parish is an active community with a multiplicity of functions, activities and concerns. At St. John's, the parish priest must rely heavily on members of the congregation coming forward to assist in a variety of roles so that it is an effective force for good in our area.

Parish Priest:  The parish priest is tasked by the bishop to provide overall spiritual, pastoral and educational lead for the parish.
