Music At St. John's
The Advent-Christmas Holidays
St. John's is a celebrating community that
embraces a wide variety of musical expressions to
Meet Jesus,
Experience the
support of the Church and Live
as Disciples of praise and worship. The Advent-Christmas season is particularly
a time where music surrounds us in every aspect of our lives. St. John's sings
with a extraordinary festive voice proclaiming Jesus, "Immanuel," "God with Us"
as we celebrate the holidays. See St. John's
worship page for all the celebrative
opportunities we will share together this season.

St.
John’s Sings … 
That which informs and shapes our song is the grace of God in Jesus Christ.
-
That song of love – that
festal shout – is both the subject and the object of our song.
-
By it we are nurtured in
our faith in the triune God, shaped for a life of prayer, and equipped for
outreach and service in Jesus’ name.
-
With that song we
robustly proclaim to ourselves and to our community and His eternal victory
over sin, death, and the satanic forces of the world.
-
As we sing, we take our
place with Christians from all time and in all places, bringing to the
worldwide work of prayer, praise, and thanksgiving, the voice of the
redeemed gathered in this corner of God’s world.
-
We sing – robustly and
often – and we utilize the many resources at our disposal to develop the
song within us and to release it to the world.
Opportunities
to serve in Music Ministry
At St. John's we want our members and our guests to
come into contact with great music, and we work hard to heighten the caliber and
scope of our musical offerings. But even more importantly, we are shaped for
response to God and service in His world by the cross of Jesus Christ. For us,
music and the arts are, above all, ways to announce the good news that God has
loved the world in Jesus from eternity. We invite you to participate in our
music ministry teams.
