                                                         IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTS  


We are happy to announce our first in person church service will be September 6th. Things will be a bit             different going forth as we try to keep everyone safe and comfortable while navigating through reopening.


Some things to keep in mind upon entering:


      - Masks are to be worn when entering the doors. (there will be some available to those without)

      - Hand sanitizer is to be used, which can be found at the main doors.

      - Social distancing guidelines will be followed within the sanctuary. 

      - We will have music, unfortunately no singing will be taking place at this time. 

      - No fellowship will follow service. Please exit the building using the north door in 

        sanctuary, as we keep the main doors for an entrance only.

Open letter to St John’s United Church Congregation Members

Suspension of Sunday Worship Services

As we all face the true reality of the spread of COVID 19 virus, many lives are being affected at home and abroad. New guidelines are being rolled out daily from Federal and Provincial bodies that need to be taken seriously if we are to stop the spread of this virus.

It is with that in mind that your church board directors have decided to temporarily suspend active Sunday worship services for the foreseeable future. Our number one priority is the health and safety of all of our congregation members.

St. John’s will continue to maintain its regular office hours throughout this time and Reverend Sparks will continue to post the weekly sermons, scriptures and prayers to our website. We encourage our members to call or email your prayer concerns to the church were Reverend Sparks will make them part of his weekly prayer offering.

The board is also developing some additional support to offer our members which will be rolled out soon. We ask you to monitor this website as well as our Facebook page where we will posting updates.

This may appear to be extreme measures as we progress through these times, however our ultimate goal is the health and safety of our church family and the community as a whole. I urge everyone to follow the recommendations that have been laid out by Alberta Health Services, Provincial and Federal Governments.

Kevin Smith

Chairperson
