LIVING INTO ST. JOHN’S MISSION OF WELCOMING ALL
Spanning the years 2021-2023, following a years-long capital improvement fundraising project, St. John’s saw the construction of Roberts Hall, a new multi-use connector building which bridges the gap between Thaxter Hall, which houses our large function hall and commercial grade kitchen as well as meeting spaces, choir rehearsal room, and Sunday School classrooms, and our historic sanctuary. This beautiful new space serves as a physical representation of St. John’s philosophy that all are welcome here, and brings our spaces into ADA compliance with elevator access and passage from lower Thaxter to upper Thaxter, as well as a wheelchair lift to bring parishioners up to the sanctuary level, inside which are several newly-constructed wheelchair-accessible pew spaces where family members may sit alongside in a shortened traditional pew.
