St. John the Beloved Parish

Church and School 

Lent is the appropriate time to step out of our comfort zone to empty ourselves of selfish ways and allow grace to enter us. Prayer, fasting, and almsgiving are the disciplines that assist us in this renewal. Turn away from sin and be faithful to the Gospel. Join us as we journey towards Easter Sunday, April 12, 2020. 

• Stations of the Cross is every Friday at 7:00 p.m. through Lent.
