January 24 Weekly News


NATIONAL LUTHERAN SCHOOLS WEEK is being observed this week.  We give thanks and praise to God for our White Creek Lutheran School and ask for His continued blessings on our Christian education ministry here at St. John’s.

 

THE ANNUAL VOTERS’ MEETING will be held TODAY at 1:30 PM in church. Copies of the meeting agenda are available in the narthex for those who did not yet receive one. All confirmed members of our congregation, 18 years and older are encouraged to attend.

 

BABYSITTING will be provided by some of our youth members during today’s Voters’ Meeting.  Children may be brought to the gym.

 

CHURCH NURSERY:  Due to very limited usage, our church nursery will no longer be staffed; however, parents are encouraged to be considerate of their fellow worshipers and use the kindergarten room in school if their child becomes restless and needs a break from the worship service.  Ushers are always available for any assistance needed.
