In recent years St John’s has formalised its relationship with Downtown Community Ministry, and is now a member church.  As a parish, St John’s contributes several thousands of dollars a year in funding to the work of DCM.  St John’s members also assist with contributions towards the food bank and membership of the management board.

The Downtown Community Ministry provides an ecumenical ministry to the city on behalf of St Peter’s Anglican, Mt Victoria Presbyterian, Wellington Society of Friends, St John’s in the City, St Joseph’s Roman Catholic and Wesley Methodist Churches.

Since DCM was formed in 1969, it has acted as a catalyst for a number of community initiatives which have then continued in their own right.  DCM also has a significant advocacy role in the city.
