The Choir of St. John on the Mountain invites you to join us during the summer Sundays of July and August! Rehearsals are brief, starting at 8:45 am in preparation for the 9:30 am Eucharist. During that time we will prepare hymns, service music, and a simple anthem for worship. This is a great way to try the Choir (with no strings attached!) or to simply be a part of the choir if your schedule does not permit doing so during the year. Middle school and high school students are welcome, too. No advance notice is required. Just show up on any Sunday morning in the Choir Room at 8:45 am beginning Sunday, June 28th and enjoy the music making!

Beginning next Sunday, June 28th there will be a Lemonade Hour, immediately following the 9:30 am service. Hosts are needed. It's easy; all you need to bring is a small treat as the lemonade is provided by the church. A sign-up sheet is located on the bulletin board outside of Parish Hall. Weather permitting, Lemonade Hour will take place outside in the front courtyard.
