Is your child ready to take Communion for the first time?
Join us for an introduction to the sacrament and a chance
to get to know other families as we prepare for First Communion.
Generally, at St. John’s children in grades 2 and 3 take
First Communion instruction when their parents decide they are
ready.
The Class
We meet four times to talk about the essentials of Communion:
Join the St. John’s 3rd – 6th graders (and a few adults) and head
to Mt. Cross for a fantastic weekend of fun, Bible study, and
hanging out with friends!
Bring your friends and join us for a fantastic weekend together!

We believe that nurturing and teaching young disciples and their
families is one of our most important responsibilities.
We believe that God wants us to be a congregation which, by
passion and example and commitment, raises up all our children,
adolescents, and young adults, to become healthy, giving, and
faith-filled servant-leaders in the world.
We believe to accomplish this mission we must offer a vibrant and
enthusiastic Sunday School program which encourages our children
to explore their faith through Bible study and discussion, art,
dance, and music.
When: Every Sunday morning at 10:15 am Where: Room 213 (on the 2nd floor of the
Education Building)
Would you like to learn how to develop your faith life with your
child, as a young family? Do you desire to create a foundation of
prayer and joy in the midst of the challenges of having a baby or
toddler? Would you like to meet other parents who are expecting,
or who have little ones?
At St. John’s, we believe, as all Lutherans do, that worship is
the center of how we come together and that in worship we are all
drawn into God’s saving story, and that children of all ages are
welcome.
But because we recognize that this isn’t practical for every
family, our nursery is available on Sunday mornings (9 am – 1
pm), Sunday evenings, and during various church activities.
Children ages 6 weeks to 4 years old are welcome to come and play
and to be cared for.
