He was named the second bishop of the Diocese of St. Augustine in 1877, during a time of rapid growth and challenges from yellow fever epidemics, fires and hurricanes. He relied on the support of Jesuits, Benedictines and other religious orders to establish parishes and schools. Among his benefactors were Henry Flagler and Mother Katharine Drexel. Known as "Silent John," Moore was tireless in his efforts to meet the growing needs of his diocese.
