Kids at St. John’s
Children of all ages and volumes are welcome in our worship service to add their voices to the joyful noise we offer to God.
Kids are the Church
We believe in the full participation of children in the life of the church. Children are invited to receive Communion at the discretion of their parents.
We host family-oriented events and activities throughout the year for the Sunday School community to socialize and get to know one another better in addition to special holiday events including the annual Easter Egg hunt and Children's Christmas pageant.
Godly Play
St. John offers Sunday School for children in the form of Godly Play with the mission of making meaning through story, wonder, and play and nurturing their spiritual lives by honoring the centrality, competency, and capacity of children.
All children, ages four and older, are invited to participate in the lessons led by one of our specially trained Storytellers.
Children gather in the Godly Play room on the third floor before the 10am service and will return to their families in the sanctuary in time for the Eucharist.
More information about Godly Play can be found at https://www.godlyplayfoundation.org/
Infants and Toddlers
Babies and young children are always welcome in services at St. John, voices and wiggles and all. We have a rocking chair on the chapel side available to help you and your little one feel more comfortable.
If you prefer, staffed childcare is available for children under four in the Guild Room across from the Parish Hall during the 10am service.
