Pomaria Lutheran Church will be our guest on this fifth Sunday of the month. Everyone is invited to stay and enjoy lunch (including desserts) provided by Coleen and Homer Thompson. Please remember to wear your red St. John’s t-shirt! Shirts are available for those who need one.

Pastor Michele continues to make appointments to visit people in both congregations. Please feel free to call and make an appointment if you’d like to visit with her.

The youth of St. John’s need your cans: aluminum, steel or tin! We will take them and recycle them for cash for the St. John’s Youth. Please remove ALL paper labels from your items before recycling and dump cans out of plastic bags.
