What to expect on Sunday at St. Joe

A Warm welcome
Casual Dress and Atmosphere- worship is about a heart attitude not how you look
Culturally Current Style- worship expressing God’s timeless truths in today’s language
Understandable Messages- a plan to live 24/7 that you can apply right away
Bible Based Messages- the Bible is our final authority for what we believe and how we practice our faith
Our Offering Box- we don’t ask attenders to give, unless they feel led to do so
Kids’ Connection - offered during the 10:30 a.m. worship service.

A plan for attending Sunday Worship:

Decide which service to attend: 8:30 AM or 10:30 AM.
Put it on the calendar, just like any other appointment.
Go to bed early enough Saturday night and set an alarm.
Set the alarm for an hour and a half before worship start time for plenty of time to get ready.
Get your whole family in on this effort (if this is your situation).
Dress casual, maybe like you were going out with friends.
Plan to arrive at 2900 N. Anthony around a half hour before worship
Come in, enjoy the refreshments, browse our weekly bulletin.
Families, register your infants through 5th graders at Kid’s Connection Counter. (kids Connection not meeting right now)
Families with infants through 4 year olds, use safety name tag system to check in/out.
Enter the Worship Area, find a seat, check out our announcement screen.
Pray that God will help you connect with Him and others during your visit.
Fill out the Connection Card, a vital tool for letting us write and thank you for coming.
Participate in singing, clapping, etc. as you feel led.
Take notes during the message- you will remember more afterwards.
Use the back of your Connection Card to communicate anything to us as you feel led.
Put your Connection Card in the Offering Box as you leave the worship area.
Browse our Resources Display in the Great Room.
Oh yeah, parents need to get their kids!! Younger kids require the tag you were given.
Repeat all these steps for the following Sunday visit!

Children (K-6th grade)

The Children's Ministry at St Joe Community Church seeks to communicate to children the love and forgiveness found in the gospel of Jesus Christ. One way we do that is through the weekly Kids Connection, a safe and fun way for your children to start learning about the love of God and experiencing this love within a faith community. Infants through 5th Graders have their own classes during our 10:30 am Sunday worship. They experience Bible stories, activities and songs.

Greeting Ministry

With a steady flow of newer people joining us for worship on Sundays, we feel it is time to re-launch our greeter ministry. If you used to be a greeter, or if you are new to the church, (and know first-hand how important this ministry is) we would love to have you join us. To join the team you must have the ability to smile and say “Good Morning!”, it’s that easy! If you missed our information meeting this past Sunday morning, but would like to be on the greeting team – please email Jon Moody at JMoody221@gmail.com.

Connection Groups

Why Connection Groups?

Acts 5:42 says “Every day in the temple complex, and in various homes, they continued teaching and proclaiming the good news that the Messiah is Jesus.” HCSB We see from this practical example that the early church gathered in large assemblies (in the temple complex) and in small groups (in various homes).

We believe a small group setting is the best place to experience the purposes of the church in personal and practical ways. Sunday worship attenders examine the five purposes, but Connection Group attenders experience the five purposes. Connection Group participants get to know people better and learn how to encourage and help one another in practical ways.

What are Connection Groups?

Connection Groups are small groups of people who meet regularly in homes, restaurants, or other adaptable areas in order to fulfill God’s purposes for the church in personal and practical ways. Groups come in a variety of sizes. We have groups for men and women, mixed aged groups, younger and older adult groups and more.
