  • 🌟 Resurrection Sunday – An Easter to Remember! 🌟
What a glorious day in the presence of God as we celebrated our risen King, Jesus! 🙌
Hearts were lifted, lives were touched, and the joy of the resurrection filled the air. We’re so thankful for our amazing church family who made the day even sweeter.

And that yummy barbeque lunch at the beautiful La Venture Grove on the St. Johns River? Pure blessing! Nothing like good food, great company, and the peaceful river setting to top off a powerful morning.
If you missed it, you missed a special one!

👉 Join us this Sunday for our special Church Anniversary Celebration!
Come worship with us, connect with family, and see what God is doing at St. Johns Discipleship Community Church.

  • Death couldn’t hold Him. Grief can’t hold you. Because Jesus rose, hope isn’t wishful thinking—it’s a living, breathing force that refuses to stay in the grave. 

This Easter, let that hope breathe new life into every broken place. We’ll gather in a place where nature itself shouts resurrection—sunlight dancing on the river, birds singing over the water, God’s beauty reminding us nothing is too dead for Him.

This Easter, step into the full resurrection story with us in the most beautiful setting — open skies, river breezes, and God’s living masterpiece all around.

  • At St. Johns DCC, we deeply value family discipleship and raising the next generation in God’s Word together. 🌳✝️

We love how our preschool and elementary kids start Sundays worshiping right alongside the whole church family—lifting their voices in praise before heading to their fun, age-appropriate breakout time!

One thing that’s special about our children’s ministry: our kids learn the same biblical content as the adults do each week. This means families can dive deeper into the same Scriptures at home throughout the week—talking, praying, and applying God’s truth together. It’s our heart to see discipleship happening in homes, not just on Sundays!

If this kind of intentional, family-centered faith journey resonates with you, we’d be thrilled to have your family join us.

Come Sunday at 10 AM—meet us under the trees! We’d love to welcome you. 💚
