St. John's UCC

Really - this says it all!

Really - this says it all!

St. John's vote to close the doors as a worshipping body passed on November 12. This was a vote reached through prayer and faith. The closure ensures that the ministry of St. John's continues, rather than having the church spend it's accumulated wealth on itself. Well done, good and faithful members! Prayers are coveted for the continuation of St. John's ministry in a new iteration which is convicted by the resurrection...Pastor Tom

You can pray for people (or whatever) when you doodle...just scribble and add color/designs while holding the person in prayer - God will show up! These doodles are inside an advent-window for some seasonal fun...

This Sunday, September 18 - One worship service at 9:00 A.M. in the main sanctuary followed by brunch and small group opportunities to talk about what we want for St. John's and her future. Communion will be served during the worship service and there will be a brief congregational meeting for members to vote on a proposed building maintenance project as well as whether to vote for a merger with neighboring associations and join the new association. The Search and Call Team will be commissioned and really needs the input of the membership as to the direction we should be looking in our search for a settled pastor. See you Sunday!
