December 6 @ 5:30 pm

While Advent is a time of waiting with hope and patience for the coming of the Christ Child, celebrating the life of St. Nicholas offers a festive opportunity to focus more on giving than receiving. Nicholas, the 3rd century Bishop of Myra, serves as an example of living out service to Jesus Christ by showing God’s love to others through his protection of children, sailors, and all in trouble and need.

St. John’s will celebrate St. Nicholas Day on Dec. 6 with an evening service, a visit from St. Nicholas during the service and a reception afterward.
