Our fan favorite annual Cider Pressing Party is coming up next Saturday, Sept 6, from 2-4pm.

We hope to see you at this festive, free, and fun community event. Find us on the front patio where you can hop in to chop apples, turn cranks, and of course taste fresh apple juice. It’s family friendly, kids and grownups both have a sweet time!

You can bring apples if you have them but don’t let that stop you if not. We’ve been stashing away apples from the SJU trees and usually plenty more show up! Bring a juice container to take some cider home with you.

All are welcome - please share the invite with your friends and neighbors!

Celebrating Creation Worship! This Sunday, August 10 at St. John United, 5515 Phinney Ave N.
In the midst of Summer we are celebrating God’s gift of creation in all its colors, shapes, and forms. You’re encouraged to bring in some symbol or bit of nature to decorate the sanctuary and help each other see the many ways God’s creativity is expressed around us. We’ll also take time to encounter nature around our property and share discoveries, things noticed, and things for which we’re grateful.
