Who we are
St. John’s Anglican Church is a congregation of the Anglican Church in North America. Formed in 2009, the ACNA is a growing fellowship of Christians who follow Jesus in the Anglican way.
When we worship together at St. John’s you will find the words, music, and prayers to be filled with great meaning, beauty, and power. Many people feel comfortable in our service because we combine different styles. For those who like a relaxed and contemporary style, we use contemporary music, multimedia presentations, and relevant, Biblical preaching for our lives today.
But we also feel many contemporary churches lack liturgical depth when all you get is 20 minutes of opening songs, announcements, sermon, and closing song. And often in those churches any song which is more than five years old is considered out of date. We reach back to some of the richness of historic liturgy and music to include in our service. These elements reach some people with a more traditional liturgical background such as former Presbyterians, Methodists, Lutherans, and Catholics.
Our services are led by the Holy Spirit which adds a supernatural dimension to our worship. We usually include Holy Communion as a part of worship.
We also seek to reveal God in continuing and full ways through the Spirit-led use of Bible study. Our worship is a response to God's loving-kindness shown to us in so many ways including His incarnation and death for us, and his resurrection. We are told to love the Lord our God with all our heart, all our soul, all our strength and with all our mind. This we do with open and repentant hearts.

Leader Bio:
Father James Linton was raised in a home that made faith in Christ a priority. He knew Jesus from childhood and knew he was going to be a pastor as early as High School.
He graduated from Dallas Theological Seminary with a Masters of Theology (Th.M) in 2009. He was ordained a priest in the ACNA in August of 2012. He served for the next six years as the Associate Rector of Christ’s Church Yucaipa before accepting a call as the Rector of Saint John’s in Salt Lake City.
Father James is passionate about those who are far from God coming to saving knowledge of Jesus. He also has a heart to see God’s kingdom come, bringing justice to the outcast and the oppressed. Father James wants to see Saint John’s become a parish of multiple congregations, planting congregations up and down the Salt Lake Valley, filling Utah with communities who worship the Christian God and proclaim him in word and deed.
Father James lives with his wife Ileana, his five children Grace, Augustine, Zoe, Malachi, and Israel, and his golden lab, Aslan. He enjoys running, hiking, reading, writing, and drinking or brewing craft beer.

Teach us to serve Thee
Teach us, good Lord, to serve Thee as Thou deservest: To give and not to count the cost; To fight and not to heed the wounds; To toil and not to seek for rest; To labour and not ask for any reward, save that of knowing that we do Thy will.
