The 2013 Tampa Deanery Project

dominicanlogo CustomMission Santa Cruz, Ingenio Santa Fe, Dominican Republic

Please click here to see the letter from Fr. Douglas Remer regarding the trip. 

Click here for a flyer about the trips. 

The Tampa Deanery project for 2013 is to "close in" the second floor of the new Santa Cruz church in Santa Fe as part of a three year project, with the goal for 2014 being to finish both levels of Santa Cruz. Specifically the goal is to build the formwork, tie the reinforcing steel, and pour the roof of the second floor. With local workers and the Tampa Deanery mission teams who arrive in June, the DR Diocese will raise the second floor walls to roof level. This year the Deanery plans to send four teams to do the work.  Please click here for more information on the trip.

 

 

 

Welcome Home

episcopal logo

We welcome you to Saint John's Episcopal Church, a vibrant, growing parish located in the heart of Hyde Park in South Tampa. Our mission is to proclaim, by word and example, the Good News of God in Christ, and to build a spiritual community forming Christians of all ages through worship, education, and outreach.

Earlier in 2012, our parish celebrated its centennial anniversary. It was a time of reflection and growth for our church family as we looked to the past, celebrated in the present, and anticipated the future with great Christian joy. We continue to embrace the traditions of the Church and our Anglican heritage and we also look to our present congregation to help shape new traditions. This is an exciting time to be a parishioner as we chart a course for our next one hundred years.

Welcome home.

Sunday, April 21, 2013, Sermon Today is the Fourth Sunday of Easter, known among the clergy as Good Shepherd Sunday. The images of Jesus and God as shepherds or sheep are profoundly powerful ones. Read more
Sunday, April 14, 2013, Sermon In today's Gospel story, we hear that the disciples do not recognize Jesus when he first appears on the shore. This calls to mind when Mary thought Jesus was the gardener after he rose from the dead and met her at the tomb. Read more
Easter Day, March 31, 2013 Sermon When you leave here this morning, the very first words which you speak will have the potential to change your life—and, perhaps, the lives of those around you. Read more
Palm Sunday, March 24, 2013, Sermon For me, Palm Sunday has always made me feel a little uneasy. We march in with palms in celebration; we read, in great detail, the story of our Lord's death; and then we wait until next Friday to actually mourn that death. Read more
Sunday, March 17, 2013 Sermon Our gospel reading this morning is a story that is familiar to many of you. It is one of my favorite Bible stories because it combines elements of intrigue and poignancy. Read more
Sunday, March 10, 2013 Sermon One of the toughest–and most important–lessons that people need to learn in life is that life simply isn't fair. And one of the toughest–and most important–lessons that Christian people need to learn in life is that God isn't fair either. Read more
Sunday, February 24, 2013, Sermon As most you know, I recently had a baby. Twelve weeks ago Mattis came into my life, and the learning curve has been very steep ever since. Read more
Sunday, February 17, 2013, Sermon Luke's story of Jesus' temptations in the wilderness, which we heard as the Gospel reading just now [Luke 4:1-13], immediately follows the story of his baptism in the River Jordan at the hands of his cousin, John. Read more
Ash Wednesday, February 13, 2013, Sermon, The Rev. Douglas Remer There was a time not too long ago when friendship suggested intimacy and mutuality: you and your friend knew that you could trust each other explicitly, Read more
Ash Wednesday, February 13, 2013, Sermon, The Rev. Charles Connelly St. Augustine said, “Our hearts can find rest only in God; that is how God made us.” Ash Wednesday is truly a day of the heart. Read more
