Youth Ministry Opportunity

Outreach Collection

We extend our appreciation to the parishioners of St. John’s for their most generous support in June’s Opportunity Outreach collection.  We collected $2,500 to support this year’s senior high mission to North Carolina.  These funds will primarily help defray the cost of gasoline, transportation and adult chaperones.  Please also keep us in your prayers as we approach our departure date on July 21st.  Thank you again for your bountiful donations.  We look forward to telling you about our experience when we return.

A Reminder to Parents of Catholic School Students

The requirement to receive the reduced rate of tuition is that you’re contributing a minimum of $520.00 per year to your parish. Please remember to make your contribution either by personal check, or by placing cash/check in your parish contribution envelope. Please do not place loose cash in the collection basket as we have no way of tracking this. It’s important that we have accurate contribution records in order to determine whether or not a family qualifies for the reduced rate of tuition. In addition, one or more of your family members should be active in a ministry.

Help Needed!

Anyone that professionally designs office workspace and is willing to volunteer for a couple of hours to help us, please contact Father Goman or Carole Keehn at the parish office. Thank you!
