St. John the Evangelist Episcopal Church

About this church

St. John the Evangelist Episcopal Church in Milwaukie gathers for worship on Sundays at 8 a.m. and 10 a.m. at 2036 SE Jefferson Street. The early service is a spoken Rite I Eucharist with traditional language, while the 10 a.m. service is a choral Rite II Eucharist with the choir and contemporary language. Communion is celebrated every Sunday, the order of service is guided by the Book of Common Prayer, and the worship bulletin walks first-time visitors through each part. Coffee hour follows in the Parish Hall at 11:15 a.m. On Wednesdays, a contemplative prayer time begins at 11:30 a.m., followed by a spoken Eucharist at noon. The 10 a.m. service is also streamed online on YouTube.

Families will find a nursery for children under four and staffed childcare during the 10 a.m. service, along with Sunday School for children ages four and up using the Godly Play approach in the Guild Room. Children are welcome in worship, and children's ministry volunteers and nursery staff complete Safe Church training. Adults can join an Episcopal Church 101 class on Sunday afternoons that explains the tradition, which suits anyone exploring baptism or confirmation. The parish also hosts a long-running Feed the Hungry meal, an emergency weather shelter, and other outreach and spiritual growth offerings. Confirm current times on the website before visiting.
