St John's Day Blessing

St John's Day is May 6, with parishes dedicated to St John usually observing on the Sunday following. This year, we will be celebrating St John's Day, our patronal festival, on Sunday, May 12. Patronal Festivals are a big deal, so come with all of the joy and celebratory energy you can muster!

There is an ancient tradition of bringing wine and other drinks to receive a special blessing on St John's Day. Why, you ask? Come to church on May 12 and all will be revealed! When you come, bring a bottle of your favourite beverage (wine or otherwise!) to be blessed as part of the celebrations!
