St. John's is a parish in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston and located in downtown Peabody behind City Hall. The parish is led by Fr. John MacInnis and operates a parochial school next-door as well as a community thrift shop, along with numerous outreach programs within the community.
The parish rectory and thrift shop are contained in a second buliding at the site. Clothing and other small, household necessities are sought as donations for the thrift shop. The store is open several mornings every week for anyone in need. Volunteers are also needed to help with sorting donations.
