“Christmas Wish” Thank You!

Posted on December 16, 2019 | Comments Off on “Christmas Wish” Thank You!

Thank you to all our parishioners who gave so generously to our 2019 Christmas Wish Program. Our parishioners stuffed mailings, entered data, shopped, sponsored, donated and finally checked that every child had their special wish fulfilled. This truly is a magical program, which will make the lives of over 300 children significantly brighter this Christmas. We extend our prayerful gratitude to all who enabled us to carry out this wonderful outreach program again this year.  Blessings to your families this Christmas!

Saint John School Scholarship Fundraiser

Posted on December 16, 2019 | Comments Off on Saint John School Scholarship Fundraiser

The Saint John School is hosting an online silent auction to reserve the third row pew (seats 8 people) and a parking spot at the 4:00pm Family Mass on Christmas Eve at St. John the Evangelist Church. This is a great opportunity to hold a spot for a larger family, or for 2 families to share the pew and bid together. All proceeds will go toward Saint John School scholarships benefiting Saint John School families in need of tuition assistance. To bid for the pew and parking spot, please go online:  www.saintjohnschool.net

The online bidding will cease at 5pm on Sunday, December 22.
Thank you for all of your support and Merry Christmas from Saint John School!

Trees & Trimmings, Saint John School’s annual Christmas Market, was held on Saturday, December 7 from 8am-4pm. Though the air was frigid, it was wonderful to see our Saint John School Community come together to pull off a successful Trees & Trimmings event! Local patrons came in by the droves to fill their homes with everything required for a magical Christmas – from the beautiful, freshly cut Wilson Farm trees, to the custom decorated wreaths, boxwoods and roping. Santa’s Bake Shop was a hit and the always popular Toy Raffle and Kids Corner were as busy as ever. Many thanks to all who of whom contributed to our annual Saint John School fundraiser that provides critical funds to the operating expenses and enrichment programs for our School.
