St John the Baptist Parish

Welcome from 
Father David

Welcome to the St. John the Baptist parish website! St. John the Baptist parish has been a part of the life of Catholics in Monroe County for almost 150 years. We are proud of our history from the original Irish Catholics who settled here in the 19th century to each person who joins us in faith, worship, and fellowship today.

In the midst of these challenging times, we believe that God continues to be with his people to guide us in courage and hope in the Risen Lord Jesus. We seek the Holy Spirit’s guidance to lead us according to God’s to a future that, though challenging, is full of opportunities to bring the good news to all of our brothers and sisters.

Feel free to contact us or me personally to learn more about our faith, for your spiritual needs, or to officially join St. John the Baptist. We need your God given talents to build up the Church. Peace and health to you and your loved ones!
