Worship

 

Different people best experience God's presence in different styles of worship. The message is the same - God's unconditional love for all creation through Jesus Christ--but the way that message is presented can and does change. Here at St. John's we have three weekly worship services in different styles that are relevant, meaningful, and give God thanks and praise.

 

Our Sunday services vary in style, but share some key elements. Most importantly, we share in one purpose: to glorify God and receive what we need to engage God in daily life. We also share the same relevant and Biblically-based sermon and the same general pattern: Gathering, Word, Meal, and Sending. In both services, we lift our voices in song, we hear God's Word proclaimed, we reach out to our youngest brothers and sisters with a Children's Message, and we have the opportunity to receive God's blessing through the Lord's Supper.

 

On fifth Sundays, we gather together for just one service at 11am. These services alternate between our two styles and locations. After worship, we share a potluck meal and participate in service projects both within St. John's and out in our community.

 

Each Wednesday, we offer a service of Word and Prayer at 12:15pm. Our format varies by the week and always includes prayers, Scripture, and song.
