Summer Services at the Lake
St. John has enjoyed a 49-acre peninsula on Clarks Hill (now Thurmond) Lake almost since the lake was created in 1954. The property is on South Carolina Highway 28, about 25 miles outside of Augusta. These wooded acres provide a natural retreat close to the city, with a sand beach for swimming, a pavilion and firepit overlooking the lake, a lodge with kitchen and dining area, and the Chapel Under the Pines. St. John members come up here to camp, swim, picnic, boat, and relax in the breeze on the point overlooking the lake. Every evening, the sunset preaches a beautiful sermon.
