Cultivating Community

Again and again, Christ teaches us to live out our faith in loving relationship with others. We are not meant to live in isolation or to practice Christian faith individually. The Church community brings us the opportunity to live into Jesus’ teaching of sharing life together, and (at its best) exists to embody the liberative good news of Christ for ourselves and for the world.

Being a part of the Saint John’s community also means upholding our common values of openness, connection, inclusion, mission, and justice. Let’s intentionally live these values in intergenerational community together.

Unlike Any Other: Jesus Through the Eyes of John

During the season of Lent and Easter, we focused on Jesus' farewell, death, and resurrection in the gospel of John. And there is so much more! The way John describes Jesus' identity is one-of-a-kind. We'll focus on these distinct attributes of Jesus through John's gospel at the end of summer.

Summer Bible Camp 2024

In this year's Summer Bible Camp (formerly VBS), we celebrate Christmas in July. Among the many gifts God has given us, the most important is the gift of community. 

The Ten Best Ways to Live

How do you stay close to God? How do you gather God's strength and direction to love your neighbor? What helps you understand how God is calling you to both learn and unravel? How do you stay connected to God's visions and dreams? In this series, we will encounter the Ten Commandments (what Godly Play creator, Rev. Jerome Berryman calls "The Ten Best Ways to Live"), especially considering where their lessons show up elsewhere in scripture, and how their lessons move us to live closer to God today. 

Echoing God's Call

Throughout this series, we will pay attention to what God has called us to be and do at Saint John's, and how we can continue to answer that call into the future. Each week, our emphasis will be on an aspect of God's call to us: to reach out to the world outside our doors, to be in community with each other and the world, to give sacrificially, and to carry our work into the future. 

Holy Week 2024

From Jesus’ triumphant arrival in Jerusalem and death on the cross, to the joy and promise of the resurrection, join us for services and activities throughout Holy Week.

Lent 2024: Patterns of Prayer, Rhythms of Life

There are prayers and creeds we know so well the words seem to roll off our tongue. Their words spell out what we believe and give us daily strength and guidance. At times, though, repeated prayers lose meaning when we say them so often that we stop listening. This Lent, as we journey with Jesus, we will rediscover the meaning of the prayers and creeds which have shaped our faith and taught us about Christ.

The Prophetic Life

When does God call us to witness? Who does God call us to learn from today? In the season after Epiphany, we will share Biblical prophets’ stories about God’s priorities in the world. These ancient lessons have relevance for us even today. 

Advent 2023: Generation to Generation ...

This Advent season, we will explore the theme of generations, not just within our own families and communities, but also in the biblical account of Jesus’ birth. From the prophecies of Isaiah to the witness of Matthew, we will learn how generations viewed the coming of the Messiah.

The Way Church Works: Spiritual Mechanics

What happens under the hood at Saint John’s? During October’s stewardship emphasis, we will look at the nuts and bolts of the Saint John’s machine. Join us in October as we consider how the spark of the spirit and the energy of our gifts fuel God’s work for the church. We’ll highlight how the Spirit drives the business of the Church, and how your financial gifts contribute to making that movement happen. 

Shift

Recall a time when you felt a renewed sense of clarity. Was there a season when God initiated a turning point for you? In August and September, we will gather around stories of turning points in our Biblical witness, describing times when minds were renewed and changed. From Moses, to the ancient Israelites, to the prophet Micah, to yes – even Jesus –  these stories share ways folks' minds were changed, and ways our Bible invites us to examine and explore. How might our perspectives shift? Join us in worship!

Genesis: The Mini-Series

Think about the latest show you binge-watched on TV or the last book you just couldn’t put down. Well, guess what? The book of Genesis brings that much drama and more. Join us this summer as we enter this great story following God’s covenant, God’s people, and all the twists and turns in between.
