WELCOME to the website of the beautiful and historic Anglican Church of St. John the Evangelist at Gordon on Sydney's Upper North Shore. We would be delighted to have you join us for our worship services or parish activities. Click here to read the message from our Rector, Fr. Keith Dalby.

PLEASE LOOK IN THE "COMMUNITY" SECTION FOR THE LATEST PEW BULLETIN. Each Sunday, this publication gives the latest news and calendar of upcoming events.

This website provides information for those contemplating a BAPTISM, either infant or adult, or a WEDDING at St. John's. Audio files of recent SERMONS can be found, plus the PARISH REVIEW. For history buffs, there is information on our historic CEMETERY and our colombarium.

Thank you for your interest in St. John's. We look forward welcoming you in person.

Parish Prayer

God our Father, send your Holy Spirit upon the people of this parish. Give us a greater love for all. Make us more compassionate for the sick, the lonely, and all in need, more zealous in the inspiration of the young, more concerned about the wider mission of the Church, and more generous in our giving of service and money. Help each one of us to know what we ought to do, and give us strength and courage faithfully to do it, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen (written by Father Bill Weston, Rector of St. John's 1979 to 1991)

We welcome all visitors to our Services. If you are a communicant member of another church, we invite you to receive Communion at St. John's. Children who have not been confirmed are welcome to come forward during Communion for a blessing.

Please join us after the 8:00AM service on the first Sunday of the month, or the 9:30AM service each Sunday for morning tea (or coffee) and fellowship.

8:00AM Holy Communion (Sung), Book of Common Prayer

9:30AM Choral Eucharist with Sunday School during school terms

4:00PM Choral Evensong on the second Sunday each month from March to November. On several occasions during the year the service will be sung by The Cathedral Singers or visiting choirs, such as the Jacobean Singers or Voces Sacrae. There is often a musical theme to Evensong.
