St. John's Church

Welcome to St. John’s!

St. John’s Episcopal Church is a vibrant, growing parish located in the Hyde Park neighborhood of South Tampa. We invite you to visit our beautiful, historic church and hear our angelic Anglican-style choir.

Our Sunday Services

We have resumed in-person services in the Church with safe distancing procedures in place, including required face coverings and a maximum capacity of 100 people. Services are said Morning Prayer at 8:00 a.m. and Choral Morning Prayer, or Matins, at 10:00 a.m. Our regular Sunday service schedule and Holy Hospitality Coffee Hour will resume in the future.

Service Streaming

The 10:00 a.m. service is streamed on Facebook Live and uploaded to our YouTube channel after its conclusion each week. Bulletins and newsletters for Sunday services can be found here.

Annual Women's Retreat

The Annual Women’s Retreat, sponsored by the Contemporary Women’s Bible Study group, is scheduled for Saturday, September 26 from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. For those who feel comfortable gathering in person, we have reserved a large space at the Franciscan Center that will allow for social distancing. For those who would prefer to participate from the safety of home, there will be several opportunities to Zoom in over the course of the day. If you are interested in participating, please contact Deacon Kathleen Moore at kmoore@stjohnstampa.org and let her know your preference. We will discuss selections from Barbara Brown Taylor’s book, Learning to Walk in the Dark, and other readings and reflections will be provided.
