“Let your light shine…(to) give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”
— Matthew 5:16
Jesus calls us to shine his light everywhere. At SJD, we believe Christ chooses each church member to represent him, especially to those who don't know his love or are in need. We love Houston and strive to be brighter lights for the Gospel. Are you ready to Go?

We're Loving Lamar with Snow Cone Mondays at St. John the Divine! After school, students can cool down with us, chill in the shade, grab a free snow cone, and meet friendly faces while they wait for their ride in a safe, welcoming space. St. John the Divine is Loving Lamar by making spaces for students and sharing kindness. We need your help to make this happen! Click the button below to volunteer for one or more Monday this fall.
