Instant Church Directory
Has your email address changed? Have you disconnected your landline and now only have a cell phone? Have you moved? Is your picture in the directory taken before 2020? If the answer to any of the questions is yes, contact Jenny in the church office to update your information.
We Are Recruiting
Can you count? Do you find yourself tapping your toe or swaying to the beat of a song? You love music but don’t think you can sing? Ever wonder if you could resurrect your high school band experience? Are you willing to try something new? If you answer yes to any of these questions, you are qualified to make music by ringing handbells! We are looking for members interested to restart our handbell ensemble at St. John’s. We will have a handbell introduction session between services on Sunday August 2. If you are interested, please contact Tim Bockelman, timbock63@gmail.com or 843.812.4323.
