On October 9 the St. John’s community celebrated as eleven young
people said “yes!” to the promises made at their baptisms.
It’s all a part of our pledge to Keep the Promise.
Congratulations to our Confirmands!
On Pentecost Sunday, St. John’s first Luminaria class finished
their term by affirming their vocations. Standing before
the congregation, each new member of the community was introduced
by their mentor and made known how they were going to use their
spiritual gifts in the St. John’s community and out in the world.
The ceremony was a powerful affirmation of our mission:
Live God’s Love in the World!
Seventeen 3rd-6th graders and a few fabulous parents spent the
last weekend of February at Mt. Cross for the SPSYC retreat.
The kids spent the weekend exploring the wonders of God’s
universe — including an exciting snowy morning on Saturday!
They also came home with a few new dance moves which they were
delighted to show off. Thanks to Heather and Steve Mercer
for providing the video and photo!
Bishop Hanson, the presiding bishop for the ELCA, is also a
father and a grandfather. He speaks out against both
bullying and the silence which can be just as painful with a
message of hope: you are a beloved child of God.
