On the summer solstice weekend with St. Jean Baptiste, we welcome back Mike and the Stuchbery family. Mike will preach at the 10 am service featuring some special music. It will all be followed by an Andrea Gailus organized brunch and surprise.  
 
At 1:30 pm for an added bonus we present with The Howe Sound Performing Arts, the award-winning classical teenage Cygnus Trio for flute, guitar and violin, consisting of brothers Ben and Jonny Stuchbery and Jasper Meiklejohn. Don't miss their youthful spirit and talent as we keep it all in the family for the longest day!
Video Tribute to Bishop Michael 
Bishop Michael
After 20 years as our Diocesan leader, Bishop Michael will officially retire on August 31. But not before he receives an Honorary Doctorate from SFU in June and is with us for our Centennial Weekend in July. At the recent Diocesan Synod a terrific "Tribute to Bishop Michael" video was shown. You can click to watch it here.
Greetings!

So how many other organizations or churches do you know of that have contributed to the life and growth of Squamish for the past 100 years - that have stood the test of time?
 
Certainly the first peoples of Squamish Nation and early pioneers and settlers have shaped our beginnings. We are thankful that St John's continues to reveal how true communities are knit together by faith, hope and love.

So join us in our Gala Centennial Weekend as we celebrate this milestone, as we reminisce with friends from far and wide, taking pride in the 100 years of ministry at St John's. Together we build the foundation for a progressive emerging church today and the decades ahead.
