Jesus asked his disciples --"Could you not spend one hour with me?"
God loved us so much he gave his only Son to die for our sins. Is it too much to ask that we spend at least one hour a week with Him?

Since we are a small parish, you will find us to be very accessible. You will not be “lost” here. We will get to know each other immediately and you will soon feel that you are a full-fledged member of our family. We have many activities, both in “reaching-out” to the community and in our own rich social life. Thus, we are sure you will find a rewarding experience here in addition to the spiritual blessings of our beautiful worship services.

STEWARDSHIP
Members of the Community who would like to participate in stewardship of St. John's Historic Resource may contact the Church Office for more information on stewardship opportunities or to make an offering.
UPCOMING STEWARDSHIP OPPORTUNITIES: Help St. John's maintain and care for its National Historic Resource by attending hearings in Upper Marlboro to overcome County Council and Planning shortcommings which continually endanger the grounds, the cemetery and the Church Hall.
Current issues affect the storm water runoff from over development of properties in the Broad Creek Historic District, which causes severe flooding of properties along Livingston Road in Broad Creek and also impacts on WSSC resources at the Broad Creek Pumping Station.
Attendance at these meetings lets our elected officials and public servants know that we really do care. Responsible stewardship by County Officials and citizens will ensure that Sewage Treatment Plants and Pumping Stations are not created or demand increased near The Chesapeake Bay, The Potomac River or their tributaries.
LET'S KEEP SEWAGE AWAY FROM OUR WATER SUPPLY AND KEEP OUR WATER CLEAN FOR DRINKING, FISHING, AND PLAYING. MAKE YOUR VOICES HEARD AND LET YOUR REPRESENTATIVES AT THE LOCAL, STATE AND FEDERAL LEVELS KNOW HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT THIS ISSUE!
An active and alert citizenry is the way to make sure our natural resources are protected.
Thanks to Prince George's County Public Works Department for being proactive in helping the Church in this effort.
Thanks also to the Broad Creek Historic District Committee for their efforts to improve life in the Historic District.
The number of people using The Food Pantry is growing -- Volunteers are needed. Community Credit available for
High School Students who help in the Food Pantry.
Many thanks to the Episcopal Diocese of Washington for providing a home on the Web for us all!
