St. John in the Wilderness will offer our annual Blessing of the Animals on Sunday, October 5, 2025, at 4:00pm in the new Wilderness Chapel located on the Trails of St. John behind the Parish Hall at 1905 Greenville Highway. Furry and feathered companions are invited to this special service to receive a blessing. All domestic animals are welcome!

St. John in the Wilderness hopes the trails will be a blessing for their parishioners and for the broader community.

The Chefs of St. John regularly serve up bacon, sausage, eggs, grits, gravy, fruit salad, potatoes, biscuits, and beverages, usually on the first Sunday of the month. Parish Breakfasts are from 9:30-10:30am in the Parish Hall.
