St. John’s Outdoor Worship! Sundays at 9:30 AM

Here is what you need to know:

  • Worship will be in the grassy area in front of the playground.  Park in the back lot or side lot.
  • Bring your own lawn chairs, and we also have folding metalfor anyone who needs one.
  • Please wear your mask anytime you are moving and in close proximity to others, walking to the worship area, greeting people, and returning to your vehicle.  Once seated and worship is taking place, you may remove your mask if you wish.  Please recognize some folks may choose to remain masked, especially when singing.
  • Please social distance as you set up your chairs – Maintain at least 6 feet of distance between you and others.
  • Bulletins will be on a table as you enter the worship space – please take one for each member of your family.
  • There will be two speakers used to provide adequate audio of the service outside.  Folks who might have difficulty hearing normally should sit closer to one of the speakers.
  • At the conclusion of worship, any trash or used bulletins may be discarded in the trash and recycling receptacles by the table.
  • We will still be providing online worship at the same time for anyone who is unable or not ready to be in-person so please understand that someone will be sitting near the front of the worship area with a tripod to provide video feed for the live-stream.

So, to recap,

What should I bring to worship?

  • Lawn Chairs
  • Your Mask
  • Your offering
  • An open heart and spirit

This outdoor service that is being live-streamed is a whole new set up for our tech team and staff – we know there may be glitches that we could not predict.  Please be patient with us as we work out those glitches both online and in-person in the early weeks as we do our best to provide a worshipful experience for all.

In the event of inclement weather

Please call the church and listen to the outgoing message and/or check the website for changes to outdoor worship.  In the event that outdoor worship is not feasible, the service will be live-streamed on Zoom from within the sanctuary. Click here to worship with us "virtually"!

Anybody who is unable to connect on Zoom from home is welcome to come to the church and sit in your car in the parking lot to listen to the worship service on your car radio – tune in at FM 89.5
