Man and woman, woman and man, come together in marriage, in love,
in unity. This unity is compared in Scriptures to the oneness of
Christ and his church.
As God is love, so has God given to us the capacity to express
love, and marriage provides us the opportunity to reflect on the
divine relationship of love.
Love is kind, love is considerate, love is giving rather than
getting, and it is such love that is embodied in the gift of
marriage.
St. John’s is located in the middle of a vibrant city and we
recognize that parking can be a problem. That is why on Sundays,
free parking is available in our garage on the corner of 18th
& K Streets. It’s right next door.
The garage opens at 8 am and closes at 2 pm. It re-opens for our
Sunday evening worship at 4:30 pm and closes at 8:30 pm. In
addition, there is some metered street parking on L Street and
other nearby streets. Sunday is normally exempt from fees.
It was 1867, in what was then a young city named Sacramento, when
a small group of men and women, German immigrants, came together
with a dream, a vision and a mission. They wanted to start a
church in the middle of town. And they did.
