St. John the Evangelist is a territorial parish of the Diocese of Saginaw, located at 5335 S Sandusky Rd. in Peck, Michigan, within Sanilac County. Dedicated to Saint John the Evangelist, the apostle and evangelist traditionally identified as the author of the Fourth Gospel, the parish serves Catholics in this rural community in Michigan's Thumb region.

The parish is administered by diocesan clergy rather than a religious order. According to the parish's shared web presence, St. John the Evangelist is associated with a broader grouping of Catholic communities in Sanilac County, reflecting a pattern common among smaller rural parishes of the Diocese of Saginaw in which neighboring parishes collaborate closely in staffing and ministry while retaining their own parish identity.

No confirmed founding date is documented in available sources for St. John the Evangelist Parish in Peck.

History

Limited independently verifiable sources are available regarding the founding and early history of St. John the Evangelist Parish. The parish is located in Peck, a small village in Sanilac County, an agricultural region of Michigan's Thumb that saw waves of Catholic immigrant settlement, including German, Polish, and Irish communities, during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.[1] As with many small parishes in the diocese, St. John the Evangelist appears to participate in shared pastoral leadership with neighboring Sanilac County parishes, as suggested by its shared parish website domain.[2]
