The scriptures were given by the inspiration of God and are profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction & instruction. John’s Christian Church was established by its founder and pastor, Rev. Coleman, in 1983 under the diocese of the A.M.E. The church was initially started in Rev. Coleman’s residence in New London, CT. However, heeding to the voice of God, in 1985 we became St. John’s Chri
stian Church, a non-denominational entity. Our services were then held at the YMCA in Groton, CT on Thames Street for several years. We moved to our present location of 346 Shennecossett Road in Groton in 1990. In 2004 we underwent total reconstruction of our church. John’s vision is and has always been evangelism. This vision was given to Rev. Coleman in accordance with Luke 19:10. We were commanded to seek and save those who are lost. The fulfillment of our vision is found in Habakkuk 2:3. As believers we are all commanded in Matthew 28: 19,20 to “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo I am with you always, even to the end of the age”. Our desire as a ministry is to reconciled all men, women and children back to God irrespective of color, creed or background. As a result of our assignment from God, our assembly of believers is a rainbow congregation. We are comprised of black, white, red and yellow which we feel is a true representation of Heaven. The Holy Spirit makes us all one. Coleman has been involved in a variety of civic organizations in Groton and New London such as: The United Way, mentor of West Side Middle School and Fitch High School, MASH, an organization for the homeless and various other commitments. He is presently the Chaplain for the City of Groton Police and Fire Departments. John’s you are free to utilize your God given gifts, talents, and skills to build and lift up the Name of Jesus!
