Ministry Description |
St. John’s is a church and a spiritual center for the whole community. Located on the shores of Madeline Island in the pristine waters of western Lake Superior, we sit among a 21-island archipelago comprising the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore. We are Madeline Island’s center of religious, spiritual, and communal life in this vibrant, lively community. We are a community of people living diverse lives surrounded by natural beauty. We are artists… painters, weavers, poets, writers, jewelry designers. We are musicians…. singers, pianists, guitar players, song writers, band leaders. We are business leaders, professionals, and entrepreneurs. We are families leading alternative lives off the grid and barely scraping by. We are farmers, tradespeople, hospitality workers, gardeners, historians, livestock breeders, fishermen, construction workers. We are 300 year-round residents, some 2500 seasonal residents, and tens of thousands of one-day visitors. We are 15 children attending a 2-room school house. We are people whose mail is delivered across the waters of Lake Superior by ferry boat, windsled and ice road. We are traditional. We are non-conformist. We are people who celebrate the changing seasons, delighting in long, hot summer days and cocooning during cold, quiet winters. We are people descended from missionaries, loggers, fur traders, lighthouse keepers, pioneer farmers, and Ojibwe elders. We are a small church. But we do BIG things! Come! Visit our amazing, closely-knit community and find out what makes St. John’s a church that people from around the globe call their spiritual home. We are looking for a full-time minister and spiritual leader who will become integrated into our community and delight in the seasonal rhythms of our special island. We hope that your experience with us will enrich your faith and give you new perspectives on the ways that God’s spirit is alive in every person. |
