About St John's Episcopal Church
St. John's Episcopal Church is located on the historic square in downtown Carlisle, Pennsylvania, and welcomes visitors from all walks of life, including parishioners from the U.S. Army War College, Dickinson College, and the broader community. The parish is known for its robust choral program and active children and youth ministries, drawing people at every stage of life—from young families to retirees. St. John's explicitly affirms itself as an LGBTQ+ welcoming community and invites all who enter its doors, whether visiting for a special occasion, seeking a moment of reflection, or looking for a spiritual home. The church offers multiple worship opportunities throughout the week, including Sunday services with both traditional and contemporary language options, and maintains an active calendar of Christian formation and community engagement.
