Attention Newcomers to St. John's Parish Church
You are invited to attend a welcome luncheon after worship on Sunday, February 5, 2023, at Resurrection Hall (1811 Paulette Dr. Johns Island). We would like to formally welcome you to the St. John's Parish Church family, answer any question you may have, and share some food and fellowship together. Childcare will be provided.
This lunch will serve as the launching point for our Confirmation Class that begins later in the spring. We will discuss St. John's mission and ministry, membership, and confirmation (or reaffirmation). It will be a great time to get to know each other a little better.
Anyone who began attending St. John's Parish Church since July 2022 is welcome to attend. The invite is also extended to anyone who has never gone through confirmation or has confirmation-related questions.
Please RSVP by February 1, 2023 to Fr. Jeremy+ or Lori Moore.
Blessings in Christ Jesus,
Fr. Jeremy+

Stephen and Cindy Haynsworth are going to Costa Rica with Rockville Presbyterian Church in February. Come join the annual fundraiser Oyster Roast Saturday Jan 28 from 5 to 8 p.m. at Cherry Point Seafood, located at the end of Cherry Point Rd., Wadmalaw Island. Donations Welcome.
Mission to Costa Rica
After being unable to go to Costa Rica on mission for several years, Rockville Presbyterian will be sending a mission team February 17th-25th.

Activities include construction related work from painting to pouring concrete, working with children doing Bible school-related activities, or most-importantly spending time building relationships and being like the moon (reflecting the Son's light).
