Parish Background
Our church is the first church in the world named after the newly canonized saint, John Maximovitch, forming and naming our church after him in 1991. At the time we called our church Blessed John the Wonderworker because St. John was not yet canonized. When the canonization happened in 1994, we changed the name to St. John the Wonderworker. We have over the years been able to gather several items that this beloved saint wore including a thigh shield and two of his robes. More recently we were given a bone relic from his foot, the only part of his body that was not found to be incorrupt. Our church joined the OCA under our Diocesean bishop, Archbishop Dmitri of Dallas in September of 2000. Visit our web page for the complete life of St. John Mamivotch at http://the-internet-eye.com/stjohn and also scroll to the bottom of the web page for a special gift of a computer program written by one of our members called the Menologion (2.0) which includes a daily icon of the saint of the day with their troparion and kontakion and also the daily Bible reading.
