Easter Services

St. John's has two Worship Services on Easter morning:
6:30am- the Ecumenical Easter Sunrise Service which is held outside by the water as the sun rises. It is a beautiful time of the morning and way to welcome the risen Christ at Easter. A reception for the community follows afterwards.

10:30 - Easter Worship Service with music and Holy Eucharist.
