Frequently Asked Questions

  • Where can I park?  A large parking lot is available on the east side of the church. Some spaces are also available along the road on the north and west sides of the building.
  • Where should I enter the building?  The most convenient place to enter for services and other events is the double doors on on the east side of the building.  This entrance is handicap accessible.  A chair-lift to the basement is also available near this entrance.
  • Are restrooms available?  Both a men's and a women's restroom are located on the lower level in the preschool area.  A single, handicap accessible restroom is located on the main level across from the pastor's office.
  • Is childcare or a nursery available during services?  St. John's believes the service is for the whole family, and we encourage families to participate in the service together. For this reason, we do not offer child care during the services. Don't worry.  We won't be upset to hear a baby cry.  We are glad to have God's youngest saints join us in hearing His Word.
  • May I take part in communion as a visitor at St. John's?  We invite all visitors who are confirmed members of LCMS congregations to join us at the Lord's Altar for communion.  Because communion is Jesus' true body and blood given for us as well as a confession of unity among those who commune (1 Corinthians 11), we ask anyone not from a church in our fellowship to speak with the pastor before receiving communion.  If you wish to become a member of our congregation and receive the Lord's Supper, the pastor will gladly offer instruction for membership to anyone requesting to join the congregation.  
  •   What Bible Classes are offered at St. John's?  Every Sunday at 8:30AM during the Sunday School hour, the pastor teaches an adult Bible class on a book of the Bible or a topic of interest.  The present topic examines the beliefs of various Christian Denominations.  Weekday Bible classes on a book of the Bible or a topic of interest are also offered from time to time.  
  • What does St. John's offer for children?  Sunday School takes place every Sunday at 8:30AM from Labor Day until Memorial Day.  The children meet for an opening in the Sanctuary before breaking out into classes by age.  
Religion School takes place on Wednesday evenings at 6PM.  Here children from 3rd-8th grades have the opportunity to learn in depth, and in a more academic setting, about the Bible and Christian beliefs.

St. John's also offeres a Vacation Bible School during the summer.  This involves learning about the Bible in a more relaxed setting with music and crafts.  Check back on the website in the spring for exact dates and times.

Visitors are always welcome at any of our children's classes.

If you have any other questions, please call the church office (515) 924-3344 or email the pastor or church office.
