St. Johns the Evangelist

St. John the Evangelist Church is against any form of racism against all people of color. It will take a lot of time and collective effort, but we must do all we can to reform our culture and system. Let’s pray that we will all be enlightened, to treat each other with equal respect, dignity and love, regardless of our race or social standing.

“In truth, I see that God shows no partiality. Rather, in every nation whoever fears him and acts uprightly is acceptable to him.”
- Acts of the Apostles 10:34

GOOD NEWS! Churches in our county are now allowed to have 50% of occupancy in the main area and satellite rooms (social hall, cry room). Please sit only on the marked seats/arranged. We still need to practice proper distance. Everyone is required to wear mask. Also, please wash your hands with soap & water when you come. Gloves are available if you want them.

Dispensation from Sunday Mass obligation is still enforced. If you have any health issue or 6o years and up, you may opt to attend any online Mass. Please help me spread the word to our parishioners who do not have internet. 

Thank you so much for your patience and consideration as we adjust to our new normal. Please continue also to pray for those gravely affected by this pandemic, and for an end to this crisis! 

*  There will be a basket at the entrance of the church, labelled "DONATION", so people can put their donation there each Mass. .

** Now online donations can be made. Go to the About tab and then go to the Finances Committee tab. In the Member ID put your box number and in comments put if it goes to something specific (building, cleaning,etc).

        Two Options: credit card or checking/bank account. What's good here is that you can choose automatic deductions every week or every month, and you can also stop it if you need to pause for some time. It's like paying a recurring bill. This is 100% secure and processed by e-Catholic. This will also show in the year-end Donation Summary letter that we give you for tax credit.

        You can still donate this way: 
a) Forward your contribution to the office: Tue to Fri; 10am - 2pm or Tue & Thu; 1:30pm - 4:30pm.
b) Mail your check to: St. John the Evangelist Parish, PO Box 580, Yamhill OR 97148

Thank you for your kind generosity! The truth is, no one else will take care of our church but us.

*** * For those attending Mass, Breaking Bread book are at the entrance, by the baptismal font. You may get one to use at Mass. Just sign up, and bring it home, so no one else will use it, to avoid any possible contagion.

Our food pantry, Care & Share, is still open. If you know anyone who need food & basic for free, please call the office. Let's continue to help each other at this time of need. God bless you always!
