"In early 1978, this church was born as the dream of a small group of individuals. These people were residents of the East Bay, and members of St. Nicholas Church in San Francisco. This committed and energetic group, who continued as active members of St. Nicholas for a substantial period of time, gave of their time and resources to achieve this dream. In April 1978, the Mission of St. John the Evangelist was officially established. The mission was served early on by Fr. James McLuckie, Fr. John Birch, and Fr. George George. This Mission has grown and changed over the years to become the Christian home and place of worship that we know and love today." (visit link)
