We are a lively, active community of faith. We strive to be a loving congregation, committed to welcoming ALL and sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ.
We joyfully welcome The Rev. Dr. Richard R. Swanson (Fr. Rick) as our Rector, effective September 1. For the past 15 years, he served St. John’s-in-the-Mountains in Stowe, Vermont. Our Search Committee, Vestry, and Bishop Carrie affirm that Fr. Rick brings the faith, gifts, and leadership to guide us forward.
Fr. Rick’s first Sunday presiding at Saint John’s will be September 14 (St. John’s Day). We look forward to welcoming both Fr. Rick and his husband, Tim, into our parish family.
With gratitude, we also give thanks for Fr. Allan’s faithful ministry as Interim Rector during our transition.
As we gather on this Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost, we also give thanks for the ministry of Father Allan during his time as Interim Rector. His steady presence, thoughtful sermons, and faithful leadership have guided Saint John’s through an important season of transition. We are deeply grateful for the care he has shown to our parish family, and we send him forth with our prayers and blessings for the journey ahead.
Join us on Sunday, September 14 (St. John’s Day) as we welcome our new rector, The Rev. Dr. Richard R. Swanson. A celebratory luncheon will follow worship as we begin this new chapter in our parish life together.
On Sunday, September 28 from 4–6 p.m. in Trimble Hall, enjoy an afternoon of toe-tapping music and fellowship with Fertile Soil, a well-loved local bluegrass band. Admission is free and open to all, with a goodwill offering supporting our music ministry. Food and refreshments will be served at intermission.
Thursday, October 30 at 7:00 p.m.
Bishop Carrie Schofield Broadbent will preside at Fr. Rick’s Service of Celebration of a New Ministry. All are invited to join this joyful parish milestone!
A beautiful day of food, fun, and fellowship—thanks to everyone who made it happen!
