What to Expect

Greeters will welcome and guide you; an usher will give you a bulletin to guide you through the service.

You'll see nearly every style of clothing at St. John's. You can sit in the main section of the church or in the east transept to the right of the altar. Please sit where you feel comfortable. We look forward to meeting you.

All are Invited to Communion

Everyone who comes to the altar seeking Christ will be welcomed. This is God's table and Christ is our host at this feast.

The bread used for Holy Eucharist at St. John's is gluten free.

If you are unable to come to the altar for Communion, we have a barrier-free station or notify an usher and we will bring Communion to you.

Children are so Welcome!

For our littlest ones...

  • Children with their wiggles and energy are so very welcome in church during services.

  • Activity bags of soft toys are available to borrow at each entrance.

  • A Cry Room overlooking the sanctuary is available for parents and children to hear and see the service

Sunday School and Youth Groups

Sunday School during the 10:15am Service

  • Children (4 years old through 5th grade) join Sunday School teachers on the third floor just before the 10:15am service starts. Parents are always welcome to accompany their children to Sunday School. The children rejoin their families at the mid-pint of the service just before Communion. Children of all ages are welcome to receive communion.

  • Our Youth Groups (grades 6th-12th) come to the worship service, receive Communion first, and then join leaders on the third floor for Youth Group, which ends at 12:15pm. Visiting youth are always welcome to come.
