Music Ministry

Here at St. John's we offer two worship experiences – Traditional and Contemporary. God speaks to many of us through songs and we have an amazing variety of music to keep you coming back for more!

During the Traditional Services, the Chancel Choir will uplift you with vocal and instrumental musical talents from within our congregation and invited guests. The music is chosen from the traditional Methodist Hymnal as well as carefully selected inspirational alternatives.

The Contemporary Praise Band
offers upbeat Christian music. Many songs will be familiar so you will be able to jump right in and sing along. If you don’t know the words, no problem. They will be available on several screens.

Hand Bells

Bell ringing is one of our most loyal group of musicians as without one person there the group misses part of the music! We are looking for ringers to join our amazing group. The ability to read music is helpful but not necessary. Provides music for our Traditional Services. Rehearsals are on Wednesdays from 6:00-7:00 p.m. in the Music Room #204 (September-May).
For more information, please contact Nicole Smith at 941-928-7531 or email choir@stjohns-sarasota.com.

Dedicate an Anthem

You can now dedicate the Sunday morning anthem to someone special. Music is such a wonderful way to honor or bless someone. Each dedicated anthem is $10.00. If your choice of anthem is one we sing frequently then we can do them the following week. If your choice is a special request it may take up to 4 weeks for the choir to prepare, so be sure to get your requests in right away. Please be sure to sign up in the lobby at Sign-up Central and place your payment in an envelope and put into the box labeled "Dedicate an Anthem" (also located at Sign-Up Central).
Contact Nicole Smith at 925-2661 with any questions.
