St John's Episcopal Church

About this church

St. John's Episcopal Church in Springfield Gardens, Queens, gathers for Holy Eucharist on Sundays at 9:00 a.m. The congregation, nicknamed "The Little Church on the Hill," was organized in 1926 and is led by a priest-in-charge. Sunday worship is held in person, and the service is also shared through Zoom and a YouTube livestream for those who cannot attend. The church building has a chairlift, though the site notes it works only within the building, so visitors with mobility needs may want to call the office at (718) 525-1444 ahead of a first visit.

Parish life is organized through a long list of ministries and action teams, including an Altar Guild, choir, lay readers, lay Eucharistic ministers and acolytes, Episcopal Church Women, a men's ministry, a senior ministry, a health ministry and an outreach and evangelism team. Children and teens can take part in Sunday school, the Youth Service Club and acolytes, with registration handled through the youth page on the website. Bible study meets on Tuesday evenings at 7 p.m. over Zoom. A Eucharistic visitor also brings communion to sick and homebound parishioners on request. Because services can be adjusted for special occasions, confirm the current schedule on the website or by phone before visiting.
