The Family Mass Musicians are always welcoming new members, old and you alike. All that’s required is a love of music and a willing spirit. And what better time to try out the music ministry you’ve always considered joining than during the Lent and Easter seasons? We rehearse at 8am on Sunday mornings in the Music Office downstairs in preparation for the 9am Family Mass, and we will have two special rehearsals dedicated to the Easter Sunday Mass, on March 30 and April 13 right after the 9am Mass. All our music is readily accessible to all levels of musicians and is specially geared toward the youth in our community. Please consider joining us to celebrate this holiest of seasons by adding your sound to ours. We’d love to have you!
Looking for something to do with your kids as the weather gets colder? Stop by the POLO (Parents of Little Ones) Playgroup! This parent-organized drop-in group meets Wednesday mornings from 9:00 to 11:00am in the Church Social Hall. Come out and meet new families – bring your coffee and snacks and let the kids run and play. To be added to the POLO Email Notification List (for notification of any schedule changes or cancellations) please contactChrissy Cassa at 
The Religious Education 1st Grade classes will be in costume as they present the Christmas Gospel this Sunday, December 22 at the 9am Family Mass.
We are looking for a few adults who usually attend the Family Mass to help oversee the collection during this Mass. It is a very easy volunteer position (as well as very important!) that involves making sure there are enough age appropriate children volunteers, guiding the children to the right pews, and collecting the money back from the children. You do not need to be at the Mass each week – we just need to have enough adults “on the lookout” during collection time to make sure there are enough adults overseeing the process. If you are interested in helping out please email 
Please join us this Sunday for the St. John Parish Family Picnic Brunch following our Sunday morning Masses. We will have pancakes along with games, pony rides, a petting zoo, and much more! We look forward to seeing you there!Saint John School
