Philippians 4:6

In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.

Apostles' Creed

I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell; the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father; from thence he shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.

Welcome

fatherstanko117.jpgDear Friends,

Welcome to our website. At Saint John Vianney
parish, we have been abundantly blessed.  
We have many hard-working parishioners of faith, hope, and love. It is my hope that this website will
to be a quick and easy way for our parishioners, as well as our neighbors and others, to quickly and easily find any parish information they may need.  

I am happy to be a part of this effort, and I wish to thank all who worked to produce this site, as well as all who serve our parish in so many different ways.

As we, with the confidence of faith, continue our journey through the third millenium of human history, we have a sense that the full story is known only to God. We know that the future lies in God's hands... let us be confident and place our hand in His.

Our life is a 'pilgrimage' to the house of God our Father.
This 'pilgrimage' takes place each day within our hearts.
May we encourage and support one another.

Very Rev. Andrew C. Stanko, V.F.
Pastor of Saint John Vianney Church

The Diocesan Church of Altoona-Johnstown is
composed of many ethnic legacies, yet we are 
one assembly of believers in the Lord.

It is our hope that your visit to this parish
website will give you accurate information,
and at the same time, serve as a source of
encouragement on your journey into the
Lord's Kingdom. May God bless you.
