Worship With Us!

At St. John, worship is a time of reflection, prayer, interaction and celebration. Some folks still wear their "Sunday best," while others come casually dressed clutching their morning coffee.  Mostly, we believe in coming as you are, and we believe God will meet you wherever you are.  


Children are celebrated in worship, beginning as they process in with the pastor each Sunday.  There are also children's "busy bags" that include coloring books and activities to keep young minds engaged.  Kids can remain with their parents, or participate in Sunday School (offered from September through May).


Communion is open to all who wish to know Christ and experience God in the sharing of bread and cup.  This usually happens once a month, on the first Sunday, and at special services.  We offer wine and juice, and have a gluten free option.  Folks can come forward to be served, or remain in the pew and be served by an usher.


We offer a variety of types of music during worship, from organ and piano to drums and trumpets.  Our handbell choir is awesome. We have both an Adult Choir and childrens choir called C.O.P.s (Children of Praise). We invite special music from members and professionals to add to the creative experience of worship and praise.
