Regular Services
St John's is open to everyone and you will always receive a warm welcome when you come to a service. The service leader will give clear guidance on what to do and when, and you are free to observe or participate as much as feels comfortable to you. All our services are followed by refreshments and the opportunity to chat if you would like to.
SUNDAY SERVICES
Join us every Sunday at 11am for our traditional worship service. This is a Eucharist using the Scottish Liturgy 1982 Revised (2022). This includes several songs, bible readings, a talk (based on passages read from the bible), prayers and Communion. Anyone is welcome to receive Communion - you don't need to be a member of this or any church - just having a genuine desire to know more of Jesus is enough. This services lasts about an hour.
SUNDAY SCHOOL
Our Sunday School meets in the church hall 2 Sundays a month during the main service. The children leave after the opening song, and return for communion. The children explore the Bible together through storytelling, games, craft, baking, science, construction, role play and outdoor activities.
