St John's 5K Run/Walk
An "Old North" Community Event
For 26 years, the church of St. John the Evangelist has been welcoming Londoners experiencing hunger to dinner every Saturday night without a break. During the pandemic, there was a period when we switched to take out but the meals never stopped. The delivery of the Meal program is supported by dedicated volunteers from our congregation, other churches and the broader community.
This is the primary, but not the only way that our church community reaches out to those in need. St John's Outreach addresses hunger, homelessness, housing, immigrants and most importantly supports for individuals in need. The funds raised from our event will go to supporting the Saturday Meal Program and other Outreach activities. With increased cost of food and supplies, the success of this event has never been more important to the financial security of the Meal Program and to Outreach supports.
Use button below to donate to support Londoners in need and particularly our Saturday Meal Program; select St. John’s 5K Run and Walk from the “FUND” dropdown.

At St. John’s we strongly believe in serving and supporting the community. As a result, in addition to weekly worship, a major part of our Christian ministry includes volunteerism and outreach activities. In the past we have supported causes in London and around the world touching on issues including poverty, social justice, children’s issues and community health.

The Communion of the Apostles (La communion des apôtres): James Tissot, French, 1836-1902, From the portfolio/series, The Life of Our Lord Jesus Christ (La Vie de Notre-Seigneur Jésus-Christ) Opaque watercolour over graphite on gray wove paper. Painted in France 1886-1894/ Image: 9 7/16 x 13 1/2 in. (24 x 34.3 cm) Sheet: 9 7/16 x 13 1/2 in. (24 x 34.3 cm) Rom the European Art Collections. ACCESSION NUMBER 00.159.223
Establishing the sacrament of Communion—in which the bread and wine of the Passover feast come to symbolize the body and blood of Christ—Jesus himself distributes the bread to each disciple, suggesting the intimacy each of them shared with him at this solemn moment. For the artist, this event marked not only the apostles’ liturgical initiation but also the beginning of Christ’s church on earth and the establishment of its most important tenets and rituals.
