St. John's is excited to again offer meals through our Saturday Luncheon Social program. The meals are provided by Faith and Community groups in the area.
We gather around a table or two and share a meal and fellowship with others.
If you or someone you know is in need of a decent meal join us on Saturdays from noon to 1:00 P.M.
We need helpers to pick up Saturday bread donations, guide volunteers from other churches, and provide food for our scheduled weeks.
To volunteer to help, please contact Allyson Doherty at Allyson_305(at)hotmail.com.

The third Sunday of each month is Food Pantry Sunday. Bring your non-perishable items to the 10:00 am service. Cereal, peanut butter, pasta, and rice are helpful, as well as canned items with pull-tops. Powdered milk, jars of cheese, and shelf-stable foods make a difference.
We accept food on the third Sunday of every month. Mark it on your calendar. Pick up an extra item when you shop.

St. John's is honored to provide the housing to two Afghan refugee families. It has been a labor of love among several faith communities. Read more about it below.
"A string of miracles" - Second house renovated to host Afghan refugees
By Nina Nicholson
Last year, we shared the story of several churches that partnered to renovate an unused rectory to host a family of Afghan refugees. This year, some of those same churches have renovated a second unused church building to host a second Afghan refugee family being sponsored by a Presbyterian church – a project made possible by “a string of miracles,” according to the Rev. Michael Muller, Rector of St. Peter’s, Mountain Lakes. Read more and view the photo gallery.
Help is still needed: The father of the new family has found employment, but the family is still without a car, forcing him to ride a bicycle eight miles each way to his job. If you have or know of a used car in good condition that can be donated or purchased at a low cost, please contact the Rev. Michael Muller at mmuller.stpetersml@gmail.com.
