Welcome! We are St. John’s, a parish that invites you to be a part of our community and warmly embraces you when you do.
​
At St. John’s, our history has taught us that accepting and embracing true diversity is challenging. As a result, we have come to claim a firm, undying commitment to inclusion. So here is our invitation to you: regardless of your cultural background, ethnicity, gender, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or heterosexual identity, economic status, physical or cognitive ability─you will not be labeled, singled out or excluded here. You will be welcomed, affirmed, embraced and celebrated! We will be better because you are here.
Are you new here?
At St. John's, we welcome you just as you are. Greeters will welcome and guide you; an usher will give you a bulletin to guide you through the service. Feel free to dress comfortably in whatever makes you feel at ease. Children are always welcome, and we embrace the wiggles and sounds they bring to our services.
Everyone who comes to the altar seeking Christ will be welcomed. This is God's table and we invite everyone to participate in communion, regardless of background, denomination, or life circumstances. Whether you're new to faith or have been walking with God for years, you are invited to receive communion with an open heart and the assurance that you are part of a community that celebrates diversity and belonging.
