“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 St. John the Divine, we believe Christ chooses each person 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 and Serve?
