Getting Ready for Christmas | St. John's Episcopal Church

We cannot express enough gratitude for the team of helpers that showed up for the greening of the church on December 17.

It was truly a situation where "many hands make light work." Our younger members helped to create a flock of angels to adorn one of the trees. Come on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day to see the church truly decked-out with greens and flowers AND bows.

News

St. John's Episcopal Church was the first religious institution to be established in Cold Spring Harbor. The first Episcopalian services were held in the little 18th century school house just above the site of the present church. The very first Vestry minutes, written in fine script on September 4, 1831, lists the founders who pledged $2,000 to build a new church.

St. John’s Church is a sacred gift we are entrusted to care for and grow. Rooted in faith, we are called to nurture our church community so that it continues to flourish as a source of spiritual strength, fellowship, and service for generations to come.

Our 2025 Stewardship theme, "Rooted in Faith. Growing in Generosity," reminds us that by deepening our faith, we create a foundation for growth. Through our collective generosity—offering our time, talents, and treasures—we enable our ministries to thrive, our outreach to expand, and our shared mission to grow stronger.
