Children's Ministry

At St. John's, we're just crazy about kids. We love kids. We believe they should be seen and heard in church. We take seriously Jesus command, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." (Matthew 19:14).

Children's Minister, Naomi Vogt, leads our staff and volunteers in a dynamic that engages the whole parish in children's ministry. 

Children in Worship

Every worship service is planned with children in mind. Weekly we have a message planned especially for children to Meet Jesus and Experience Church. Age appropriate worship bags are available for children to pick up as they enter the church. Booster chairs are a favorite for kids to pick up so they can see everything better. And when parents need a little extra help we have a full-staffed nursery with paging services for parents.

Sunday School Spring Session
Begins April 15

Sunday School for children ages 3 through the 6th grade at St. John's meets every Sunday from 9:25a to 10:30a. Nearly all of our teachers have teaching degrees and their love for kids just shines. Our children have the opportunity to sing, learn, and play with their peers as they discover God’s love and grace. Our fall season begins this Sunday. Volunteers will be in the church narthex to assist you in getting started. See the FAQs on Sunday School page for more information. You can also contact Naomi Vogt at extension 212 or through our contact page.

Children's Sermon This Week

Christ is Risen! The children will take part in the surprise of Easter and celebrate the good news of the stone rolled away, Jesus is alive, back from the dead!

Parents: Take It Home

The entire drama of Holy Week and Easter is the core of our faith. Take time at home to ask your children what they saw and heard about Jesus in these services. Help them to know the most important story you'll ever tell you children by retelling it with them.

Youth on Sunday Mornings

Youth in junior and senior high hold discussion groups with in depth studies in scripture and contemporary issues every Sunday morning. The youth room is located in the basement, room B-08.  The stairways to the basement are located in the church narthex and adjacent to the church office.

Confirmation Studies

Confirmation Classes meet weekly on Tuesday evenings from 6:15 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. from Late August through April. Contact Naomi Vogt (x. 212 or contact page) for more information.
