Thrivent Action Team – Bible Blitz
We will collect funds to purchase Bibles to distribute free of charge to the community. The plan is to setup a booth at Rural King as customers exit the store and ask them to choose a Bible and take a flyer about visiting our church. Our goal is to raise $250 to match $250 received from Thrivent for this project (a goal total of $500). The goal is to get at least 50 nice Study Bibles. To donate, see “St. John Bible Blitz” https://thrivent.cotribute.co/events/517931/detail. See Brian Strobel for more details.
Life Pump (International Outreach) The Council has set a goal of purchasing two Life Pumps for water in Malawi, Africa; $30,000. If you’d like to make a special contribution to Life Pump support, indicate “Life Pump” on your contribution. The balance is $14,751.00.
Stamp Project – WNALC is again asking St. John Church to collect cancelled postage stamps. We have found an organization, The Sisters of The Holy Cross Stamp Ministry, located in Notre Dame, Indiana, that is collecting these stamps. They need our help! The sisters receive our stamps, prepare and sort them. They then take sets of stamps to auction and sell them to collectors to raise money for their projects. As before, cut the stamp from your mail with at least a ¼ inch border. Collect them in a zip-lock bag. When the bag is full, bring them to the church and place them in the designated collection area, where the used glasses and batteries are donated. Thank you in advance for your support. -St. John Women.
