News from St. John Parish

  • Bring your bells to Holy Thursday Mass!    The whole congregation is invited to ring bells during the Gloria at Holy Thursday Mass.  Bring your bells and help “make a joyful noise!”
  • Turn in your Rice Bowls!     All donations collected on Holy Thursday are earmarked for the poor through our Rice Bowl program.  If you been collecting money in your Rice Bowl you can turn it in on Holy Thursday, any weekend Mass, or in the School or Parish Office. Your Rice Bowl donations support the work of Catholic Relief Services in roughly 45 different countries each year, supporting hunger and poverty alleviation efforts.
  • Father Paul Farin of Cross Catholic Outreach will be visiting our parish next weekend to speak at all the Masses on behalf of the poor in developing countries. Cross Catholic Outreach was founded to create a meaningful link between parishes in America and the priests and nuns working in the Church overseas in the Caribbean, Africa, Asia, Central and South America.
