Thoughts
" It was not on tales artfully spun that we relied when we told you of the power of our Lord Jesus Christ and his coming; we saw him with our own eyes in majesty, when at the hands of God the Father he was invested with honour and glory, and there came to him from the sublime presence a voice which said: 'This is my Son, my Beloved, on whom my favor rests.' This voice from heaven we ourselves heard; when it came, we were with him on the sacred mountain."
2 Peter 1: 16-19

"Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word of Christ" Romans 10:17

"God writes the Gospel not in the Bible alone, but also on trees, and in the flowers and clouds, and stars." Martin Luther

Stewardship

Fellowship

One purpose of Fellowship is "to promote an environment of unity and love through intentional opportunities for fellowship." The spiritual journey of life is more than attending church on Sunday morning and Christian education. Sharing ourselves, our families, and our beliefs through formal and informal interaction is the ultimate expression of who we are and the way we live. St. John's encourages a variety of fellowship programs to promote positive interaction and to give members the support they need in today's world.
