DIsciplines of the spiriutal life
Our Lenten Wednesdays begin at 5:45 PM with a potluck in the Parish Hall, followed at 6:30 PM by Lenten Devotions for adults and children alike. Childcare is provided for children five and younger in the nursery.
For the potluck, parishioners are asked to bring meatless main dishes, salads, vegetables, or fruit. (No desserts, please!)

Kids in the 'Croft
During the worship and meditation for adults, children from kindergarten through fifth grade will have an opportunity to learn more about the Passover Seder that St. John’s will offer on March 26. They meet in the Green Room, located in the Undercroft (the basement of the church).
