Timeline photosThe St. John’s Episcopal Church is a staple of the city of Globe and in 1978 it was placed on The National Register of Historic Places.

“The roof was finally finished in 1908, and the congregation began to hold services in the new church building. The borrowed chairs from the Oldfellows Hall for seating. In 1912, the youth group sold subscriptions to the El Paso Times and raised $800 for the purchase of new pews. St. John’s Guild raised additional funds for an organ, choir vestments, a steam heating plant and other accouterments...

An attached Parish Hall, built in 1939, matches the design of the original building. In the 1960s, extensive remodeling and decorating, under the direction of Father Peter Boes, enhanced the appearance of the sanctuary.”

Timeline photosThe St. John’s Episcopal Church is an undeniably beautiful building, built just off Broad Street of Historic Downtown Globe.

“Mr. A.C. Sieboth drew up plans...The edifice’s floor plan was in the traditional Anglican cruciform configuration. The exterior walls were built of dacite blocks from a nearby quarry. The steep roofline and pointed windows and doors gave it a Gothic appearance. The front stained-glass window was purchased with money earned by the women of St. John’s Guild. The remaining stained glass windows were added through donations and memorials.”

Timeline photosThe St. John’s Episcopal Church, with its steep roofline and pointed windows and doors, is widely known by the community for their beautiful gothic style building. But do you know how the church was first established in Globe?

“A series of Episcopal meetings were held in October 1899. By the end of the month the group had established the Episcopal Mission, hired a resident clergyman and arranged to continue meeting at the Gila County Courthouse.

About a year later, with $200 in cash and a $300 loan from the bank, the new congregation purchased a lot on the corner of Oak and Hill Streets, and immediately thereafter they started a church building fund. Money came in slowly. In July 1903, the parishioners gave their approval to start construction on a place of worship.”
