A church service at St. John's

 

 

8:00 a.m.
This traditional format early bird service has a loyal group of folks who enjoy having the chance to attend worship early enough in the day that other Sunday activities are possible.

 

9:15 a.m.
This contemporary worship service is less formal than traditional formats. Music is provided (on the first and third Sundays) by “Common Lot,” the St. John praise band. This group includes several vocalists as well as guitar, percussion, and keyboard. On the second and fourth Sundays, music is provided by an eclectic mix of recorded songs from popular and contemporary Christian artists as well as a smaller combo featuring drums, piano, and bass guitar. Scriptures are read in contemporary, easy to understand translations, and the message is shared in a way that invites those attending worship to participate. Since the St. John Sunday School program also meets at this same time, busy parents can get their children off for classes and stay for worship.

 

10:30 a.m.
The third Sunday morning service at St. John’s follows a traditional format, but includes participation from our children’s, hand bell, and youth choirs. This service also hosts special musical events, such as St. John’s annual Dixieland jazz Christmas celebration, as well as liturgical highlights such as confirmation.
