St. John's is a Christian community that bases its life together on the Summary of the Law: "Jesus said, 'THE FIRST COMMANDMENT IS THIS: HEAR, O ISRAEL: THE LORD OUR GOD IS THE ONLY LORD. LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, WITH ALL YOUR MIND, AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH. THE SECOND IS THIS: LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF'." [Matthew 22:37-39]

ST. JOHN'S IS A CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY THAT INTENTIONALLY GATHERS TO EXPERIENCE GOD'S LOVE THROUGH EPISCOPAL WORSHIP, EDUCATION, FELLOWSHIP, AND MINISTRY TO THE WIDER COMMUNITY.

Based on its Biblical Statement and Mission Statement, St. John's discerns its highest priorities in the next three years are the following:

1. To learn more about who we are as a local congregation, as members of the Diocese of San Diego, as members of The Episcopal Church, and as members of the Anglican Communion.

2. To tell our story more effectively to the local community, especially to new families.

3. To strengthen relationships between the St. John's church community and the St. John's school community.

4. To continue to develop the various outreach programs that are an important part of the parish.

5. To grow as a parish in terms of membership, leadership, and stewardship (time, talent and treasure).
