Saint John's Episcopal Church - Hagerstown, Maryland
If you are searching for a spiritual home, we hope that you will consider Saint John’s. The parish is home to a number of outreach programs and ministries, a comprehensive Christian Formation department, exciting programs for children and youth, and more. We encourage you to participate in the life of the community as fully as you desire.
Saint John's provides a comprehensive ministry for children, youth, and adults to use their gifts of music to offer praise to God. In addition to liturgy, the music ministry sponsors Music at Saint John's - a series of concerts, recitals, and choral Evensongs which include participation of the various choirs of the parish under the direction of Minister of Music as well as noted guest artists.
Music has been an important ministry at Saint John's Parish since its beginning in 1785. It is a means of glorifying God in and through worship, in education, in fellowship, and a way of reaching out to the wider community.
The two choirs for boys and girls provide an opportunity for them to develop musically and spiritually with emphasis placed on musical artistry, encouragement to develop self-reliance, as well as leadership and service to the church and to one another. The education in religion, liturgy and music which is learned in choir will last a lifetime.
