Sesquicentennial "Drag The Church" Commemorative Walk

Sunday, February 13, 2011

On Sunday, February 13, 2011 at the 10:30 am worship we held a special commemoration of the dragging of the original church building across White Bear Lake from St. John's Episcopal Cemetery to our current location. The clergy led us down Clark to Lake Ave for a brief liturgy. We then returned to church to conclude our worship. A light lunch followed. At all 3 liturgies, lifelong parishioner and historian John Johnson shared stories of our Sacred History that has poised us so well for our Vibrant Future.
