Children's Christian
Formation

We welcome children to stay in church for the entire 10:30 a.m. Sunday service but realize that sometimes another creative outlet may be more meaningful. To address this need, St. John’s offers Children’s Chapel during the 10:30 a.m. Service.

  • Children’s Chapel

    Children’s Chapel is offered for ages 4 years old through 4th grade. A “Sunday School” lesson along with an interactive, age-appropriate Chapel experience designed especially for this age group. Volunteers and children assemble outside the Chapel by 10:15 a.m. to join in the 10:30am service processional. (If your child is in the congregation when the procession begins, they are welcome to join the group at this time.)  Volunteers then lead the children to the Children’s Chapel for their special service. During the Peace, volunteers return children to the 10:30 am service so families may celebrate the Holy Eucharist together.

  • Nursery

    Although young children are always welcome to come with their parents to participate in the church activities, St. John’s also offers a first class nursery for your children.  Our Nursery is staffed with loving, well-qualified, and experienced nursery caregivers.  Nursery care is available on Sunday Mornings for ages 0-3 from 9:00 a.m. to noon September through May, and from 10:00 a.m. to noon June through August. Nursery pagers are available for your convenience.
