The Worship Service
Worship in the Episcopal Church follows ancient patterns laid down in the first few generations after Jesus. Our services include prayers that are printed in the bulletin for everyone to say together aloud or silently, songs that everyone can join in singing, instrumental and choir music that we listen to, stories from the Bible, and a sermon that interprets those Bible stories so they speak a word to people today. A printed bulletin gives you all the words of our prayers.
Episcopal worship may seem confusing at first. It is meant to be rich enough that we uncover new meaning each time we pray together, whether for the first time or the 10,000th; God continually reveals Godself to us through worship. Everyone is invited to participate in worship at their own level of comfort. If you get lost during the service, just breathe and let the rest of the congregation carry you.
A typical Sunday service lasts about an hour and 15 minutes.
Our Location
St. John’s is at 700 High Street, Worthington, Ohio 43085, on the southeast corner of the Village Green, at the intersection of High Street and Dublin-Granville Road (“161,” as it’s known around here).
Where do I park? What about handicap parking?
St. John’s parking lot is off Village Green Drive. From High Street, turn into Village Green Drive and head straight into the church lot. Handicap parking is available on Village Green Drive, in front of the church, right next to the ADA-accessible ramp into the building. Because Village Green Drive is a city street not owned by St. John’s, the spaces aren’t marked as handicap parking, but they are available for that purpose.
Which doors should I use?
On Sunday mornings, enter through the main church doors–the ones painted red–or the glass doors to the Atrium. The south doors, facing the parking lot, are kept locked to maintain security for our nursery.
