Sunday School:
We are studying "Jesus Final Journey" through February. The Spring Quarter curriculum will be ordered in February. The Sunday School will be serving a Lenten Supper. We get together for Sunday School and youth Bible studies on Sunday mornings from 10:00--11:00 a.m. You are always welcome to join us!
St. John Youth Group:
The youth group continues to raise funds for the National Youth Gathering in New Orleans, Louisiana, July 19-July 23, 2025. They will be selling roses on Sunday, February 9, along with candy bars and blankets. The Youth will also serve a Lenten supper.
Faith, Family, and Fellowship:
We gathered for Faith, Family, and Fellowship on Wednesday, January 8, after a busy fall and holiday season to have some fun and fellowship. We enjoyed a great supper and then we played BINGO with prizes. We had 36 people in attendance and enjoyed our time together.
Our next gathering will be Wednesday, February 12, with supper at 5:30 p.m. After supper, we will go to our different groups--Confirmation and Bible lesson time. For our service project, we will be putting together 25 "Birthday Packs" for the food shelf. There will be no Faith, Family, and Fellowship during the Lenten season in March and April. (Ash Wednesday is March 5.)
Vacation Bible School:
Make your calendars for VBS--Sunday, August 10--Thursday, August 14. The starter kit has arrived! This year's theme is "Wonder Junction: Marvel at Jesus, Live for His Glory." The Bible verse theme is "From the rising of the sun to its setting, the name of the Lord is to be praised!" (Psalm 113:3)
Our next Board of Christian Education meeting will be Sunday, February 9, at 11:00 a.m.
We would like to wish everyone a Happy Valentines Day!
Blessings,

St. John Youth look over the array of delicious candy bars they have for sale after the Sunday service.
When you purchase a gift card from the youth scrip program, the merchant returns a portion of the money spent to the youth of St. John. This is a marvelous way to support our youth programs at no extra cost to the purchaser!
