WORSHIP
As participants in worship ministry at St. John’s West Bend, each of us is called to serve, to lead, and to worship in His Service. All of our worship services utilize a common order and liturgy and other thematic elements. Services are held on Saturdays at 6:00 PM (traditional), Sundays at 8:00 AM (traditional), 9:30 AM (blended), and 11:00 AM (contemporary). Holy Communion is celebrated on the 1st, 3rd, and 5th weekends of the month. As the Lord leads you, consider the opportunity to serve in one of the areas of worship ministry.
