Welcome to St. John the Baptist Roman Catholic Church

St. John the Baptist Roman Catholic Church of the Arlington Diocese. The church is located in Front Royal, the historic county seat of Warren County, in Virginia's scenic Shenandoah Valley. The original church, dedicated on 1884, was built as a memorial for John Carrell Jenkins, a Maryland soldier who died for the Confederacy. The new expanded church, with a capacity of 475, was dedicated on June 24th, 1998, the feast day of St. John the Baptist — its Patron Saint.

When visiting Front Royal, please come and visit our parish and worship with us.
