Worship lies at the heart of what it means to be an Episcopalian. Praying shapes our believing and Sunday worship is one of the ways in which we strive to engage in passionate spirituality. St. John’s embraces different forms of worship and is open to new ideas for our worship services.
​
We use inclusive worship booklets for the different seasons of the church year (Advent, Epiphany, Lent, The Great Fifty Days after Easter and the Sundays after Pentecost known as Ordinary Time). The goal is to offer radical hospitality and provide an easy to follow guide to worship, especially to those who might not be familiar with the rhythm of the Episcopal Church.
Each season offers a blend of the Book of Common Prayer, as well as prayers from other resources.
