The Town of Breckenridge now requires that parties who use their facilities (such as Carter Park) have a "Zero Waste" event. We will be providing reusable plates, utensils, napkins, and cups for all Mass on the Grass parishioners and guests.


We could use your help to compost the food waste, return the dishes to the Gathering Place, and then wash and put them away. "Training" on how to run the dishwasher will be provided, if needed!


The sign-up has one hour time slots with opportunities for at least 2 people to help each hour. Thank you in advance for your assistance!

You can help for all or part of the dinner time.

No Nature Ramblers Hiking Group

on Friday, July 3


Since it is a holiday weekend, and we don't have a hike leader, we will ship the hike on 7/3. 


The following week, Jan will lead a Cucumber Gulch hike. Note: dogs are not allowed on this trail. We will park at the Nordic Center and take the gondola up to the trail entrance at Peak 7.

Rector New Cell Phone


The Rector has added the following contact number:


(970) 409-7507


Although email, rector@stjohnsbreck.org, is always the preferred avenue of contact, by all means add this number to your rolodex for situations when talking or texting is just a better option. This cell will generally be powered off when the Rector isn’t on the clock, but she will monitor it periodically for emergencies.


The Rector may typically be reached:

  • Tuesday-Saturday 9am - 5pm
  • Sunday 8am - 1pm


She is off on Mondays, when she will neither send nor receive communications (but will check periodically for emergencies).

Contacting Vestry Members


The Vestry now has an email address, vestry@stjohnsbreck.org, which will be monitored by Senior Warden, Carol Goodwin.
