Welcome to St John's, Devon Welcome to our beloved St. John's, an embracing spiritual fellowship of thoughtful Christians and seekers
in Devon, Pennsylvania. We've been described as an oasis on the Philadelphia Main Line, where people find refreshment of spirit,
a safe and engaging place for their families and faith journey, in a setting that looks like an endearing country church in the suburbs.
For my own part, I tell folks that the church looks on the outside the way it feels on the inside—and that really seems to resonate.
We have three inseparable passions that characterize who we are and what we seek to be as a church family—a family church:
loving toward God, loving toward neighbor, loving toward ourselves. We encourage you to discover us, as we hope to discover you and your
household's needs.
Rev. Dr. Victor M. Wilson Pastor
Worship Services Traditional worship service at 9:30 am Sundays with concurrent Sunday School

Communion first Sunday of each month.
Sanctuary Renovations
St. John’s has been blessed with funds designated from the Young Trust and a significant gift from members (who prefer to be anonymous) for the purpose of “freshening up” the sanctuary in preparation for our impending transition. After extensive research and review by the Trustees, the Session has approved their proposal to install random width hardwood floors in the sanctuary with carpet runners in the aisles, repaint the walls and trim and install tile in the vestibules. This work is scheduled to commence after Confirmation Sunday, May 20 and conclude in early July. This work will be performed by Sextant, an established local general contractor. Sunday services will be held in either the Carriage House or Fellowship Hall during this construction period. We prayerfully request your patience as we work through these exciting changes.
