About the United Church of Christ
Your Officiant, Your Musicians, Your Ceremony!
All are welcome to use our sanctuary for wedding ceremonies. You choose your own Officiant and Musicians. You do not have to be a member of St. John, nor do you have to attend any pre-marital classes.

Office & Parking:
The office is in back of the church building. Our parking lot is off of Clay Street. Once you park, you will see a ramp leading up the back of the church where you will find the office door. Please ring the buzzer in the brick to your left. This is where everyone enters for wedding rehearsals.
