Vacation Bible School

The theme of our VBS this year was, “God’s Wonder Lab”. Each day the kids learned about the miracles of Jesus. Was it science? Was it magic? No! It was Jesus showing his love for us!

The kids, youth helpers, and adult volunteers all had a great time! Thank you to all.

Eleven students received attendance awards this year during the church service on Rally Day.  During Sunday School we hosted a Scripture Carnival that included four booths. The topics were; David and Goliath, Parable of the Sower, Fishers of Men and Noah’s Ark.  At each station, the teachers told the story and the students participated in the activities that included; shooting Goliath with a slingshot, planting seeds, a boat race and a fishing game.  A fun time was had by all!  Thank you to Keri, Dave, Becky, and Jacquie!  

Youth

The Youth Group had a sleepover on September 15th.  They played games, watched movies, started the bulletin board, and ate.  Thank you to Becky and Michelle who spent the night and Mike and Gary for bringing food.   

Their future plans include; a skate party, the rummage sale and completion of the bulletin boards.   

The Rummage sale will be held on November 4th, and their ideas for raising money are, a silent auction, bake sale, and a 50/50 drawing.

We are currently raising funds to help our youth attend the next gathering in New Orleans!

Kids Kingdom Choir

Our Kids Kingdom Choir has begun rehearsals for the 2023-2024 season.  Their first performance will be during church on October 8th.  They will be singing songs they learned in VBS.  We look forward to their contributions to the church services this year! Thank you Julie!

All women of St. John are invited to our Women’s Book Club. We meet in the gym at 5 pm on the third Tuesday of the month.

Our next book is Choose Joy by Kay Warren. We will discuss this one at our next meeting on October 17th.
