Advent Booklet Deadline November 7: Writers and artists are needed for St. John’s Advent 2010 Devotional Booklet. This year the booklet will focus on a Christmas carol, why it is important and what memories, feelings and emotions are present as we sing or listen to the carol. (Please limit your writing to approximately three paragraphs or less.) Please see Mary Sterner or Pam Tedeschi if interested.
Nov. 7 Crop Walk: Crop Hunger Walk is just around the corner! Crop Walk is a community-wide event to raise funds to end hunger at home and around the world. If you are interested in walking or donating to Crop Walk, please stop by the table in the walkway after church.
Volunteers Needed: The Evangelism Committee runs the after-church coffee, juice, and snacks but can't do it without the help of some special volunteers. There is nothing to buy; we just need volunteers to help serve, preferably two, and return the trays and snacks to McPhail Hall. Evangelism will purchase and keep a supply of snacks in McPhail Hall. If you are interested, please contact Kathleen Captain.
Carpet available: St. John’s has a piece of new carpet from the Building 2 classrooms about 9 feet by 10 ½ feet that needs a new home. Please talk to or email Bobby Hughes at rwhughe@oplink.net for more information.
Coffee Cans Needed: The Outreach Committee is collecting coffee cans to be used at the Holiday Gift Market, please deliver to the box outside the church office.
Holiday Gift Market (formerly the Living Gift Market): Everyone is invited to this special event on Sunday, November 21, 12 – 3 pm. Come and enjoy the fellowship, shopping, music, children’s crafts and a silent auction! St. John’s Outreach Committee is working on making this year’s event the best one ever!
