Announcements for November 10

Break Fast and Bible Study
Dr. Russell Kleckley continues to lead us in a review of the Gospel of John during Bible study following breakfast.

Donation in Lieu of Altar Flowers
In lieu of providing altar flowers today, Tim and Nancy Bradshaw are making a donation to the Robert Donald Alcorn scholarship fund at the Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary (LTSS). Their donation is given in thanks for Don Alcorn and the beautiful music that he brings us every time he plays: Sundays, special church events, funerals and weddings. He is the life of this church!

Youth Group
The youth group will meet today from 4 P.M. to 5 P.M. All youth in grades 6-12 are invited to attend.

Community Thanksgiving Service
At 6 P.M. on Sunday, November 24, St. John’s will host the annual community Thanksgiving service with our neighbors in Christ, Shady Grove United Methodist Church. There will be a joint choir during the service and some food and fellowship in the Fellowship Hall following the service. More details will follow soon.

Annual Congregational Meeting
The annual congregational meeting will be held on Sunday, December 1, 2024, immediately following the worship service. The purpose of the meeting is to approve a spending plan for 2025 and to elect Council members.
