BAG BLESSING: In honor of students, faculty and staff returning to school, we will offer a bag blessing and bag tag for EVERYONE in worship. Anyone who desires to have their backpack, work bag, briefcase or handbag blessed, is invited to bring it to worship on Sunday, August 7. We will have a special Bag Tag for you to hang on your bag to remind you that your St. John’s family is praying for you. If you worship online, swing by the church office, Monday – Thursday, 9 a.m. – 4 p.m., after August 4 to receive a tag to place on your bag.

SCHOOL SPIRIT: We also invite everyone to show your School Spirit by wearing your favorite spirit wear or school colors that morning.

BIBLES FOR STUDENTS: Children going into Kindergarten, 3rd, 6th and 9th grades will be presented Bibles during the service. 

SUNDAY SCHOOL: Age-specific Sunday School classes for children and youth will resume at 9:45am on August 4. The start of a new school year is a great time to begin attending Sunday School. We have classes for adults of all ages, children and youth, and a nursery for our youngest ones.
