In addition to all of the amenities offered at St. John’s for providing physical care, another key component in creating home and building community is spiritual care. Indeed, this is largely the philosophy on which St. John’s was built and continues to promote. Each campus offers worship services and residents and tenants have access to St. John's full-time Chaplain.

• Chapel
