The Anglican Church of
S. John the Baptist

Traditional Episcopal Worship
In Northwestern Virginia

Welcome to our website. We hope that it will provide helpful information about our parish family and life. We are an active and growing network of families throughout northwestern Virginia and West Virginia, committed to traditional worship centered in the historic Book of Common Prayer.

There is a deep longing in all of us to experience a sense of awe and mystery, a sense of the transcendent. The traditional liturgy assists us in moving past our self-centeredness so that we may more fully become aware of God’s presence as we gather together in His presence. In the central act of Christian worship, the Mass, we are gathered up together “with Angels and Archangels, and with all the company of heaven” to join them in their unending act of praise and thanksgiving. I hope we have given you a sense of what we’re about and that you will join us soon.

May God richly bless you on your spiritual journey.
