The Anglican Parish of St. John the Baptist, Cobble Hill

Our Patronal Festival - June 24

Did you know we celebrate the birth of St John the Baptist - just after the spring solstice as the days are getting shorter and John proclaimed in John 3.30 "He must increase but I must decrease."?

And we celebrate the birth of Jesus after the winter solstice because the days are getting longer and "the true light has come into the world and the darkness will not overcome it".

All the other saints we commemorate only the date of their death - which we also do for St John the Baptist on Aug 29th.
