Its a stunning example of The Gothic Revival Style an amazing space that in the age of Covid may never see the crowds of parishioners it once hosted.

Treat the homeless as Jesus would and have the snow removed ALL THE WAY AROUND THE BUILDING. NOT JUST FOR YOUR PARISHIONERS!!!

An open and loving community. Were not Episcopalian, but we felt welcome. The Sunday night Wilderness service is a unique and meaningful experience.

My family goes for Lessons & Caroles every year as a holiday tradition. The stained glass is beautiful & the music is always well done. Its a special place that holds an important place in my heart. It also happens to be where my parents were married 40 years ago!

The Wilderness is like no other church service Ive ever been to. Its a calm and reflective atmosphere in a gorgeous cathedral with some of the best music youve heard at church.

I enjoyed visiting this cathedral. Wow. I’m impressed by the whole thing. The church was packed. I felt the sermon hit our hearts sensibly. They have coffee/tea and cookies to serve after the service.

We were involved in a wedding at this reverent space. There is a lot of history here. The acoustics were phenomenal. The original stain glass windows and architectural structures made for very good photos. Definitely a space that makes you feel like you are transported over seas and attending a royal wedding.

Awful neighbors, their encouragement of vagrants on their property is increasing crime and trashing our community. Rats are everywhere. Property is unsafe. I cant believe anyone would insurances these people.

Its a shame when a church wont allow the public to use the restrooms.. We should be inviting outsiders in not keeping them out.

Plain yet rich, intricately designed and look. The food was sweet, included bread sweet, cookies with colored chocolate chips, cookies with chocolate chips, and fruit as and mangorine. Ingot about three papers that modeled the erekony ceremony of the day. I was with Tony and the people.

Took my mom there for Christmas Eve day service. The church is really beautiful and decorated all out for the holidays. The brass and organ music was wonderful, the brass musicians who were phenomenal. I have heard that the music is great all year round so Ill have to go back some other time during the year. If you go for the Christmas Eve service, go early, we came on time, or just about 10 mins early, and there was no place to sit. Also, parking is an issue, we took a Lyft and really glad we did.

I enjoy so many things about Saint Johns Cathedral. I may enjoy taking communion the most. There is something about the ritual of walking up the aisle and kneeling to receive bread and wine and processing back to my place. I also enjoy the community - the wonderful and creative people Ive met. I also appreciate the rigor of the sermons - to reach into scriptures and place it in context of the past and present. I could go on - Ive been attending Saint Johns Cathedral since 2004, so I have many pleasant memories and experiences.

When I was rejected by my church in Aspen, by the new Rector from England, a wonderful counselor from St. Johns Cathedral accepted me as a lesbian wanting to be married in church. What did Jesus say about same gender love? Answer: NOTHING! Praise God from whom all blessings flow. The case is now at the US Supreme Court before the 8 Justices. Pray!

St. Johns Cathedral is a wonderful community! If you are looking for place to worship, a way to serve in the Denver community or a place to make some new friends, St. Johns is the place to be! They have a strong childrens program, from little ones up through high school, Cathedral Night on Wednesday nights for all ages, with Eucharist, dinner and classes, Seniors on a Rampage (SOAR), 20s and 30s group, a monthly day of service at different agencies throughout Denver, a yearly womens retreat and an all parish retreat at Cathedral Ridge, just to name some of the things going on at St. Johns. There are four services to choose from every Sunday during the program year and the choir and music is consistently amazing! The clergy are a remarkable group of men and women who help to guide this vibrant community. I would highly recommend St. Johns Cathedral to anyone looking for a church home!

Im Catholic what am I going to say its a bad Church? I dont think so but since Im on this page and since Im giving it 5 stars I will go as far as expressing my concern about the covering of statues specifically our lady and the crucifix and the Saints in the removal of holy water I wonder at what point does our faith require total lack of light or visual reference for us to satisfy our insecurities as Christians or Catholics for us to believe and confirm our faith by proving that we dont need a visual reference or a remembrance of the sacrifice Jesus has made for us and then in turn to reflect that in our communion with Christ Im sorry I might be a little confused and even showing my age but in my opinion this is not moving forward or reflecting growth in my face or in my belonging to Gods family

A beautiful turn-of-the-century (1908!) stone cathedral with beautiful stained glass and a 4-keyboard grand organ. Well worth a view. We were self-guided but the staff was very helpful with access and historical literature.

Review №61

This is an amazing community of friendly and inviting people! If you want a place to worship where people love tradition and learning and are open to new ways of thinking about and living the Christian life, then this is where to begin looking.You can go to traditional Episcopal services on Sunday mornings and during the week. And, for a unique experience, I recommend The Wilderness service on Sunday evenings at 6 pm. It is a less formal, more contemplative Eucharist that hearkens back to the earliest Christian gatherings where people came together under the stars in the desert to celebrate and pay tribute.

Review №77

This church is very lax in allowing vagrants to use its grounds around the clock, resulting in turning the nearby community into a hobo camp. They fight, aggressively panhandle, have sex in public, defecate in public, steal, assault, and make a drunken racket at all hours. Community members have been trying to get them and police to do something about it, and little to nothing is being done. At all hours you can see upwards of 30 of them loitering with their loaded shopping carts full of junk. Be careful where you walk because you may step on one of them unwittingly. One of them tried to shank a guy living across the street with a screwdriver and he was sent to jail for aggravated assault. Another one stole the doorknobs off the church to sell for scrap metal. Community members have taken tons of photos of these vagrants, and the church doesnt seem to care to do lick about it.This church has turned the area into a blight and is bringing everyone down with it. If youre such bleeding hearts, St Johns staff, please relocate these people into your own yards and homes instead of dumping them on those of us that live nearby.Thanks!

The funeral services for my Dad, Gerald Bingaman, were truly beautiful and moving. The staff made it as easy as possible in such a difficult situation. My concern is about the invoice for the cost of it since dad has been contributing generously to the church for nearly 50 years...

Best Christmas Eve Music ever, and Im a singer, so, ....i flew to L.A.after the midnight mass, then to OSLO, Norway, where I still had one of the beautiful, Soul-captivating songs the choir had sung , circulating throughout my mind, body, and spirit, even in Norway!! Thank-You choir of St.Johns Cathedral. Great, powerful song choice. You raised my spirits after the heinous Ame.election results, and You raised my vibration. Tussen Takk. Merci. Sokoran. DANKE viel mal. Arigato domo. Jingkuieay (!sp?) Grazie.
