Radiance TeaTea & Testimony Last Saturday, eighty women --mothers and daughters, grandmothers and granddaughters, friends and family-- gathered to share tea and hear Jenny Fayette's story. Jenny shared how the love and safety found in Christian community enabled her to confess her struggle with sin and experience the cleansing healing of Jesus. If you would like to be a part of this kind of loving, Christ-centered community that reminds us of our true God-given identity, please consider our current Community Group offerings, or if you would like to be a part of a new group, please contact Lori.

Ministry of the Week
Daughters of the Holy CrossThe Order of The Daughters of the Holy Cross is composed of women who have committed their lives to the work and service of our Lord Jesus Christ. We pray daily for our church, it’s clergy, the Order and others in need. With the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we reach out to those who do not know Jesus and share His message of salvation through word and deed. We equip ourselves with the powerful sword of truth as contained in the Holy Bible. We wear our cross as a symbol of Jesus’ sacrifice and our need for Him to be in our daily lives, and we become encouraged and strengthened in community with our sisters. We live a life of prayer, study, service and evangelism. For more infomation visit: https://www.stjohnsparishchurch.com/fellowship/daughters-of-the-holy-cross |

A Prayer for our Parish
Dear Heavenly Father, Together we are united with the saints of the household of God; built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Jesus Christ himself being the cornerstone. In Christ alone our church is being joined together, and is growing into a holy temple of the Lord by the Spirit. By Your wisdom may we discern what You want us to build; Through Jesus Christ our Lord and the power of the Holy Spirit, Amen. |
