Worshiping during COVID

Beyond the regular virtual services St. John's offers, we've had the opportunity to do a variety of other types of services.  St. John's has had the pleasure to lead the Dioceses of Iowa's virtual Eucharist service several times.  Included among these is a moving Tenebrae service in April 2020.

We've also hosted several "drive-in" services, whether permitting, where the congregation gathered in their cars in the parking lot across the street from the church.  Readers and cantors stepped out of their cars when the service reached their part so everyone could see.  Congregants were able to hear by calling into a conference call.

These services have been very popular with the congregation, but due to the complex logistics of a livestream from a parking lot and the dependency on good weather, we've only been able to offer a handful of services in this format.

Coffee Hour

We invite you to share a cup of coffee, tea and conversation immediately following worship in our sanctuary!
Picture

Daily Compline

Each weekday night at 8pm, we offer a short (10 min.) service of quiet prayer.  Join us to for this soothing service each evening.

Additional Worship Services

Bishop's Visit

The Bishop of the Diocese of Iowa regularly travels to each parish to worship with congregations all over the state.  He sticks around for coffee hour afterward; spending the time to get to know each congregation.

Holiday Services

St. John's always gets into the holiday spirit, decorating the front of the church to share the spirit with our community.

Blessing of the Animals

Every year in October, we have our Blessing of the Animals service.  It is always fun to see the critters that show up.  So far we've had cats and dogs, rabbits and ferrets, and even caterpillars and alpacas!
A growing, vibrant church, committed to building disciples, growing in faith, and serving our neighbors in Christ's name.
