Students: bring your backpacks with you to Sunday worship this Sunday, August 11th. 
Teachers: please also come so we can pray for and bless you as you begin the school year.

Due to the recent weather, the Welcome Back Teacher's Breakfast was postponed. Once it is back on the schedule we will again need volunteers to prepare food and serve the teachers. We will keep you posted.

Our young saints of St. Johns are learning about offerings. All of the children's offerings will go towards the Building fund.

Beginning September 1st, we will have an additional Sunday school class. In order to be successful, we need your help. It's fun, easy and fulfilling. Agnes provides everything - the lesson and the supplies. Please consider volunteering.

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.
