The parish traces its roots to St. Marys Mission Church, founded in 1835, took the name St. John in 1933, and became an independent parish in 1974.

The parish is linked with a mission in Harrisville and with St. Joseph Chapel in Pennsboro. Because of a fire at the Harrisville location, that mission's Mass is currently celebrated at St. Joseph Chapel on Sunday at 11:00 a.m. Visitors may want to confirm this arrangement with the parish before traveling. Parishioners mention a relaxed time of fellowship after Mass, with coffee and baked goods shared by members. The website can be viewed in Spanish, and the parish posts its bulletins online for download and keeps a Facebook page. Questions can go to the parish office at (304) 684-7669.
