We are extremely grateful for her dedication to St John's and to the Lord. Next time you see Linda, please be sure to share your appreciation with her. We are blessed by all she does and our services wouldn't be the same without her.

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.
