When do you pray? How do you pray? Why do you pray?
Join us for Conversations in Prayer beginning this Monday evening, October 7th at 7:00pm in the Parish Center. This program is a four-part video/discussion series centered on different aspects of Prayer. Each session will have a short video (approx. 25 min.) followed by small group discussions facilitated by Linda Collozi and Anne Wachtmeister.
For the month of October, the Adult Faith Formation Commission is discussing Mary, the Mother of God on our blog, Faith Matters: Reflections on Our Shared Faith. Please visit to find reflections written by parishioners as well as links to lots of great information, such as St. John’s on Facebook to receive regular updates on our monthly theme!
October is the Month of the Holy Rosary The Rosary has been loved for generations as a scripture – based prayer honoring the Blessed Virgin Mary. During October we encourage you to experience this beautiful devotion. To assist you there are some rosaries and pamphlets at our Church entrance. Also, every Tuesday, 7:00 p.m. you are welcome to pray the rosary with parishioners in the lower Chapel.
