Something for everyone
Attend one of our services or prayer groups and experience the difference at St. John’s Arva.
Sunday School
Children ages 3 through 12 years are welcome in our Sunday School, which takes place during our 10:30 am worship service from September to June.
Bible stories, theme-related crafts, music, games, object lessons and science are all part of our Kids’ Club Sunday morning fun!
Our Godly Play program is also used throughout the year to teach children to enter into biblical stories and relate them to their personal experiences.
Youth Group
St John’s Youth Group is a way for youth ages 15-17 to connect with each other in our community
Our group lessons every Sunday morning at 10:30 from September to June are based on the Elements curriculum as well as real-world experiences .
In addition to our weekly Sunday meetings, St. John’s Youth Group meets once a month in the evening which frequently involves participating in community outings.
Community
Our social calendar includes Coffee Hours held after Sunday Services; the Wednesday 10-12 Coffee & Conversation (all are welcome); our popular Christmas Bazaar, and many others.
St John’s values being a member of the local communities and is happy to give back.
In addition to our regular monthly and annual special events, we are pleased to regularly donate our time, talents and funds toward many important non-for-profit foundations including:
Sleeping Children Around the World
The Primate’s World Relief and Development Fund
The parishioners of St. John’s Arva constantly assist with the needs of those within our community and beyond.
