Where did we Start?
St. John Fisher started when a small handful of people came together and desired a Catholic Mass in Southeast Orange County. Their wish was to reach people with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and provide a means of worship for Catholics within the area. Mass began in the hospital chapel at Nemours Childrens Hospital at 6:00 p.m. in the evening. Over time, this small group moved to a 9:00 a.m. Sunday Mass and began to outgrow the chapel. As a result of that growth, they began their search for a larger facility. This led us to Andover Elementary School. St. John Fisher celebrates Mass at 8:00 a.m. and 10:15 a.m. on Sunday at Andover Elementary School.
WHERE ARE WE GOING?
Through the blessing of the Holy Spirit, the growth of St. John Fisher has been beyond expectations. No one would have thought a group worshiping in a hospital chapel in the evening would become a church family. But the people of St. John Fisher know this is an example of how God works. He makes the impossible, possible! All one must do is remain faithful to His calling.
The people of St. John Fisher were faithful. As a result; they outgrew their space, they are seeing people reconciled with the Church and watching the church grow. And now, through gracious gifts we are beginning to plan the building of a Church. Our hope is to one day very soon erect a Church that will display the beauty, reverance, and holiness of Catholic worship in the east Orange County area. We invite everyone to join us in our new location beginning January 5th, 2020 as we work to see this become a reality.
