St. John's is a welcoming and inclusive church home where all are welcome.
An excerpt from The Baptismal Covenant:
St. John's downtown location affords the parish with opportunities to reach out and work with other downtown organizations, and to support, speak out for, and minister to the residents of downtown Stockton. This parish lives out the baptismal promise of striving for justice and peace among all people, and respecting the dignity of every human being. St. John's is an inclusive parish family made up of people of all nationalities, colors, sexual orientations, gender identifications, ages, states of life, and home/homeless status. ALL are welcome.
