Vibrant Faith
St. John's has been partnering with Vibrant Faith since 2013. Vibrant Faith helps us engage God in daily life by ensuring that our administration is mission minded and by providing resources for households to use. As we incorporate the Five Principles, Four Keys, and Three A's of the Vibrant Faith Framework, we are finding them to be helpful guides in our life together.
Five Principles for Living and Passing on Faith
- Faith is formed by the power of the Holy Spirit through personal, trusted relationships often in our own homes.
- The church is a living partnership between the ministry of the congregation and ministry of the home.
- Where Christ is present in faith, the home is church too.
- Faith is caught more than it is taught.
- If we want Christian children and youth, we need Christian adults.
Four Keys for Practicing Faith
- Caring Conversations
- Devotions
- Service
- Rituals and Traditions
Three Characteristics for AAA Christians
- Authentic
- Available
- Affirming

Growing Our Future Campaign
Latest News!
Giving now totals more than $62,109 and continues to grow toward our $100,000 goal. Construction is beginning on the campus, and we will be seeing sidewalks changing, and trees and shrubs being relocated or replaced over the next 6 weeks. Thanks to those who have contributed! To those who wish to contribute, there is plenty of work remaining, and we hope to reach our fundraising goal by Homecoming in September.
