I'm New

St. John's is accessible through the garden entrance (the main entrance for services) as well as the office entrance, both of which are located along the pathway on the north side of the church connected to Quadra street and the parking lot.

The sound system at St. John's is t-coil compatible for hearing aids. 

Please let the Greeters know if you would prefer a large print copy of the leaflet.

If you are unable to come to a communion station during the service, please let one of the greeters know when you arrive and we will bring bring communion to you.

Gluten-free wafers are available during communion. Please request them from the person who is distributing the bread.

All the washrooms on the main floor of the church building are single stall and gender neutral. An accessible washroom is located near the office entrance. 

Whether young ones come every Sunday or once in a while they have a welcoming place to belong! Young ones are invited to remain in the service; they can sit with their caregivers or come to the dedicated space at the back of the church, where they can experience and participate in worship while engaging with a variety of art materials. There is gentle guidance and encouragement, with toddlers, teens (and even some adults) coming and creating together. We wiggle and whisper, but nobody minds if we make some noise - everybody is happy that we are here!

If you have questions, please contact Ruth MacIntosh, our family and formation minister.

Come as you are! Some people dress casually, others may chose to dress more formally; wear whatever feels most comfortable for you.
