| Whether you ’re just passing through, checking things out, or exploring what it means to have faith in Jesus Christ, you’re welcome here. Though far from perfect, St. John’s folks accept one another as we are and hope for one another what God created us to become. Here you’ll see who we are and what our journey is about. It would be our privilege if you could share it with us.
What you will find is this:
- a casual, inviting, and welcoming atmosphere
- friendly people who’ll help you find your way around
- good music, engaging sermons, interactive opportunities for prayer
- books, stuffed animals, pillows, and table for children to draw on
- freshly brewed coffee you can bring into the sanctuary
- that you matter to God – and to St. John’s
Whether you’re single, married, single again, with or without children-
No matter your lifestyle or sexual orientation, your cultural or ethnic tradition, your situation or need-
No matter where you’ve been or what you’ve done-
We affirm who you are and invite you to experience God’s presence here.
Here are five great ways to get connected and develop friendships in a faith community?
1. Connect! Attend a Commitment Class.
What’s at the heart of St. John’s? This class explores St. John’s, God, your purpose in life and spiritual growth. Contact pastor John for more info.
2. Celebrate! Attend worship regularly.
During worship, there are many opportunities to engage – volunteer to read scripture, participate in music and other rituals, or enjoy the moments of silence and prayer. We encourage everyone to worship as they feel comfortable.
3. Be in Community! Join a group or a St. John’s sponsored activity.
Whether it's a small group where you connect through a Bible study or coming to a church picnic and potluck, groups and activities are the places to develop friendships. There's always something going on at this place.
As an intergenerational faith community, read what we covenant together.
4. Commit! Volunteer to help out.
Whether it’s teaching our children in our A.R.K. program or simply bringing goodies to share at worship, be part of something bigger than yourself. Use your gifts and experiences to serve others and develop friendships.
5. Be Compassionate! Serve the community.
St. John’s strives to be a community center with a congregation at its heart. Whether it’s handing out groceries through Harvest, showing stimulating films and documentaries through St. John’s Cinema, or opening our doors daily for personal prayer and reflection, we hope to be a sanctuary for not only St. John’s, but for the community as well.
