What to expect during worship at St. John

  • ALL are welcome to this time and place of worship.
  • All children are welcome in worship! We believe that having children and infants in worship is like having them at the dinner table. They’re here because they are part of the family, not because their manners are perfect. The nursery is available, but not staffed during worship times. If you are more comfortable bringing your child to the nursery during worship, please do! We just ask that you stay with your child. We are working on getting the live video from the sanctuary available on a monitor in the nursery.
  • The Sermon: A time of practical teaching from the Bible.
  • Communion: We serve communion at every service here at St. John. Our communion table is open to all ages.
  • Refreshments: Join us for fellowship, coffee, lemonade, and treats in the parlor after worship.

What do we do in Christ?

  • We gather to worship weekly (and sometimes more often) to celebrate the gifts of Christ that form us and shape us as a community.
  • We pass on the faith to our children in Cross+Walk Sunday School and Confirmation to give them the language of faith so they might grow to become part of the community more deeply.
  • We nurture and encourage our youth by providing space to gather and talk about important things, mentors and staff to guide them, mission trips to teach, opportunities to serve, fun-filled adventures to better experience their burgeoning faith.
  • We grow in faith through study and service with the Bible and prayer.
  • We reach out with the gospel of Jesus Christ to the Fargo-Moorhead community in ministry, for example, by serving meals at the Salvation Army and Churches United for the Homeless.
  • We support one another in difficult times of life.
  • We lift our voices together in praise.

In all we are and all that we do, we are a community in Christ.
