Services at St. John’s

Sunday 8 AM Worship: With the traditional language of Rite I from The Book of Common Prayer, this quiet and contemplative service includes a sermon every week and the celebration of Holy Communion. From Memorial Day to Labor Day, the service is held behind the church in the Cutler Memorial Garden, weather permitting

Sunday 10 AM Worship: Using the language of Rite II from The Book of Common Prayer, our service includes preaching, the celebration of Holy Communion, and music led by our choir and music directors. Formation programs for children and nursery care for infants and toddlers  start at 9:45 am, and children in classes  join their parents for the latter part of the worship service. A coffee hour follows the service in the Parish Hall.

Monthly Evensong: Our Evensong Service is held on the fourth Friday of every month at 6:30 pm. This quiet contemplative service provides an opportunity to participate in the historic service of Evening Prayer through prayer, praise, and song.
