The Chapel St. Chronicle
Welcome to the Chapel Street Chronicle, your weekly St. John’s digest.
Since the pandemic forced us to adapt to new technologies and ways of gathering and worshiping, our daily reflections have offered a vital way to stay connected in faith and community, even when we couldn’t gather in person. These reflections have evolved into a cherished ministry, fostering connection and inspiration virtually for our church family.
As we begin the Advent season and a new church year, we’re excited to reimagine this offering. Each Tuesday morning, the Chronicle will bring together highlights from our community: the Sunday sermon video, a musical reflection, and thoughtful contributions from our clergy, staff, and members.
