blessings as he makes this change. White
Creek Lutheran School is accepting applications for a social studies/science
teacher for the middle and upper grades for the 2017-2018 school year. Questions and resumes may be directed to the

KINDERGARTEN
SURVEY: As a follow-up to the suggestion left for the
Board of Education to consider 5-day kindergarten, a survey was requested of
the congregation over the past few weeks.
These are the results: 21 in favor of 5-day kindergarten, 9 against, and
1 undecided. These results lead the
Board to continue to look at the various aspects of this situation, and in the
future, more input may be requested of St. John’s members.
CONGRATULATIONS TO Rev. Jacob &
Emily Hercamp on the birth of their daughter, ELLA MARGRETE HERCAMP, this past

STEWARDSHIP
THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK: Romans 6:13
“Present
yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life, and your
members to God as instruments for righteousness.” Everything we have – even our own existence,
our very selves – is a gift from God to be used for His purposes. God has called you to be His own and has
given you tasks to perform in home, church, and society. How will you serve Him today?
T BLESSINGS ON YOUR WEEK! T
