What Events and Gatherings Are Happening at St. John in the Wilderness?
Updated
St. John in the Wilderness Anglican Church in Brights Grove, Ontario lists its upcoming gatherings in the "What's Happening" section of its website. Based on the schedule shown there, the current listings include a Prayer Shawl Group, a Bible Study, and the 8:30 am Sunday worship service. The site also points visitors to a "View All" link for the complete schedule, so the entries below reflect what was posted at the time of writing rather than a permanent calendar.
Current Listings in "What's Happening"
| Gathering | Date & Time | Location |
|---|---|---|
| Prayer Shawl Group | Sep 23, 1:00 PM | Parish Hall |
| Bible Study | Sep 24, 10:00 AM | Parish Hall |
| 8:30 Sunday Worship | Sep 27, 8:30 AM | St. John in the Wilderness |
Prayer Shawl Group
Meets in the Parish Hall. This is a recurring group gathering rather than a worship service, so if you are looking for the prayer shawl ministry specifically, the Parish Hall is the place to go at the listed time.
Bible Study
Also held in the Parish Hall, on a separate morning from the Prayer Shawl Group. Both midweek gatherings use the same venue, which makes the Parish Hall the main hub for weekday activities.
8:30 Sunday Worship
The 8:30 AM service is listed as taking place at St. John in the Wilderness itself. Note that this is only the early service — the same Sunday also includes a 10:30 AM service, so the full Sunday morning schedule is broader than the single 8:30 entry shown in the events list.
Checking the Full Schedule
The "What's Happening" section includes a "View All" link. Because the listings above are dated entries rather than a standing weekly calendar, use that link (or the parish's Facebook page, which the site also references) to confirm times before you plan to attend. Dates and rooms can change, and new gatherings may be added after the ones shown here.
Related Information
If your main interest is Sunday worship rather than weekday groups, the site's Sunday listing covers both the 8:30 AM BCP Holy Eucharist and the 10:30 AM BAS Holy Eucharist with Sunday School. The homepage also notes that visitors are welcome to "come just as you are," and offers a separate page describing what to expect on a Sunday morning.
