Welcome to our virtual worship page!

Picture
You can attend worship LIVE online in real time on ZOOM each Sunday morning and weekdays. (All services are listed in Pacific Time.)

Welcome, Visitors... Don't Be Shy! It's very easy to visit churches online without having to interact with anyone at all. We rejoice in the accessibility this brings for those unable to get to worship, or who are just shy about coming in person for the first time.

Remember, though, that the Christian life is meant to be lived in community. Don't watch from home without any interaction with us forever! If you like what you see, fill out this online version of our welcome card so that we can be in touch with you and get to know you - in whatever ways you feel comfortable interacting with us (online, over the phone, or in person).

There are many ways that Parishioners can participate in services at St. John's​ - from singing in the choir to reading liturgy. Two other ways are by giving a "Living Epistle" or through a "Minute for Ministry."

Living Epistle

​A "Living Epistle" is a short talk given by a member of St. John's community during our worship services. After we hear the written epistles (letters) of Paul and the other apostles from the scriptures, we hear a "living" epistle, a "letter" from one of our fellow parishioners that testifies to God's action and presence in their life.
Below are links to examples of Living Epistles at St. John's.
  • M. Campbell - Text (.pdf)    Video
  • T.  Grubbe - Video
  • S. Lewis - Video

Minute for Ministry

A "Minute for Ministry" is a short talk given by a member of St. John's community during the offertory portion of our service that details how they use their gifts in God's service, either in the parish or the wider community. Below are links to examples of Minutes for Ministry at St. John's.
