<br><strong>A Brief History of St. John&#39;s Presbyterian Church</strong><br><br>Following the devastating earthquake and fire that destroyed much of San Francisco in April of 1906, many families moved to the East Bay after losing their homes in the tragic event. Some of these new residents joined about 100 people from the First Presbyterian Church of Berkeley to consider the formation of a new congregation.<br><br>On June 16, 1907, this church was officially organized by the Presbytery.  We are grateful for the gifts that God has provided us through the years, especially through the spirit within people that have been called to serve us, teach us, love us, and bring us vision of God&#39;s will.
