Show me your ways, O Lord, and teach me your paths. — Psalm 25:3

This is a very special Sunday! We will have a joint worship service with the Williams Community United Methodist Church as we celebrate World Communion Sunday.  The Rev. George Barcus and the congregation will meet with us at 10:30 am for the service at St. John’s.  There will be an anthem sung by a joint choir.  Holy Communion will be served as part of the service. We will also have our recorded video service available on our Facebook page by Sunday morning for those unable to attend this special service.  The bulletin for the video service is at the bottom of this page as a PDF file. It includes the full scripture readings for this Sunday along with prayers.

After the service we will have a coffee hour in Walker Hall with lots of treats and beverages.

If you are able, please join us for this special time of communion and community.  All are welcome at St. John’s.  We are an affirming and welcoming church in Williams, Arizona.

After the coffee hour, we will have our annual Blessing of the Animals. This begins at 12:30 pm and will end at 2 PM.  This is also an event for the entire community.  All pets of every size and variety are welcome to come for a blessing and to receive a St. Francis medallion that can be worn on a collar.
