St John's Vancouver Anglican Church is a community of Christians dedicated to the exposition and teaching of the Word of God, to the spreading of the good news of the Gospel at home and abroad, and to the application of God's purpose in our own lives and families.

Eat. Study. Listen. Pray.

Men at St. John's build up and support each other in discipleship. We meet in small groups to break bread together and devote ourselves to the teaching of Christ and the apostles. Prayer is crucial to us. We invite you to join us in our journey to holiness in Christ.

Men @ breakfast
These special events occur three or four times a year on Saturday mornings at 9:00 am. We enjoy a full catered hot breakfast followed by a talk from a prominent member of the community. Recent speakers included Rector David Short, Canon Dr. J. I. Packer, Bishop Paul Barnett, and Bishop Charlie Masters.

Men @ 7:20
Expect breakfast, encouraging fellowship, prayer and stimulating Bible study.

We meet every Wednesday for breakfast from 7:20 to 7:50, we continue with a time of prayer between 7:50 and 8:00, and then Bible study from 8:00 to 8:30. We are currently working through the book of Acts.

Men @ prayer
These small discipleship groups meet once a week for 50 minutes at a time and place of their choosing. The time is organized as follows: 10 minutes informal discussion, 25 minutes discussion regarding prayerpoints (this can involve reflection on a recent sermon, a verse of scripture or perhaps a Bible study or other text), and 15 minutes of prayer. We explore three underlying themes:

  • How does what I have heard in the sermon or read in the Bible impact my life?
  • Is there any behaviour that I should commence doing or desist from?
  • What requires prayer?

"...Learning that all the other men at one point have gone through the issues I'm dealing with was eye-opening. Praying together, encouraging one another, and seeing prayers answered has been very helpful. I can't recommend the men's groups highly enough."
