A Word of Welcome

Whether you are returning home or visiting for the first time, there is a place for you here.

For more than a century, St. John the Baptist has been a house of prayer at the heart of Riverton. We are a community gathered around the altar — drawn by the sacraments, formed by Scripture and tradition, and sent out to serve.

Our doors are open daily. Come and pray, light a candle, or simply rest a while in the quiet of the church.
