Every week we gather to remember God’s amazing love for us and to hear and receive Jesus’ forgiveness and peace. During each worship service, we share together in the wonder of the Good News of Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection through singing, prayer, the reading of scripture, and preaching.
On the first and third Sundays we receive the sacrament of Holy Communion. Everyone is welcome at our Lord’s Table.
A nursery for young children is provided downstairs in our fellowship hall. Parents, who wish, are invited to take children to the nursery following Youth Time in worship.
The church is completely accessible to all persons. Parking is available across from the church. Greeters will direct you to the sanctuary and other facilities.

I continue to hold you in prayer. This has been a Holy Week with so many ups and downs. I give thanks that we were still able to gather on Zoom, but I miss seeing you in person. It definitely felt different to gather in silence on Zoom, knowing that my kids were playing in the background. Still, I give thanks for that time of prayer and worship.
We gather for worship on Easter Sunday knowing that death does not have the last word and that Christ is risen. Worship is on Zoom at 10:30 AM. To join worship, download Zoom and enter the invitation. You may also call in.

2021: The Year of Generosity Memory Verse Matthew 6:21 “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also”.
Council prayers: We ask the members of St. John’s to pray this month for the continued decline of Covid and the increase of available vaccines for inoculations.
Reservations and Volunteers: Worship in the sanctuary means that we will have reservations each week, so please email or call Sandy Thompson if you want to worship in the sanctuary. We request that these are submitted EACH WEEK by Wednesday evening so that we can make sure we have enough space for everyone. Yes, it may be a hassle to call each week, but we want to make this fair for everyone and we have a small space.
We will also need three volunteers every Sunday! If you are willing to volunteer, please let me know. Being a volunteer also assures you have a space reserved in the sanctuary.
We also need a cantor to assist with our music. This is someone who will sing along with Morgan playing but will stand in the Upper Room. Would you be willing to sing?
Sunday April 11th worship is at 9 AM in the sanctuary (please email or call Sandy to make reservations at sandy8110@gmail.com) and in the parking lot. Worship is on Zoom at 10:30.

Saint John's offers an electronic option to safely make both regular offerings and special donations to our church.
Or if you like to give a RECURRING GIFT, you can now contribute automatically from your checking or savings account through your credit/debit card or by a text message. Our electronic giving program offers convenience for you and provides much-needed income consistency for our congregation. But remember, if you are happy with your current giving method, you do not have to change a thing.
If you no longer want to write 52 checks a year or prepare 52 envelopes, this is a giving option for you to consider. And when travel, illness, or other circumstances prevent you from attending services, this program will allow your regular offerings to continue on an uninterrupted basis.
This electronic option allows donations to an array of budget items via a drop-down menu. Some examples are flowers, the cemetery fund, memorials, endowments, scholarships, fuel, and others.
