This is the 1st post to the brand new St. John’s UCC web blog! Please use this blog to share views and thoughts on topics that are important to you and would be of interest to the congregation members of St. John’s. In the spirit of Christian kindness, please keep conversations friendly and all language “G” rated. The purpose of this forum is to discuss general issues, and not all posts may receive a response. If you have specific questions about St. John’s that would be better answered by our staff, please visit the “contact us” page at www.stjohnsmonroe.org.

Would like to hear from 8th graders & chaperones on how the confirmation retreat went at Pilgrim Center last week.

My wife, Marie and I just completed teaching the rotation on Plagues and Passover. We lead the groups in the “Oasis”. The supplied teaching material was very good and Marie prepared some fun props for the children to use as we brought the plagues and God using Moses to life. It was a wonderful experience for us and the children were all attentive and interested. I wish that our church would of had a “Faith Zone” for me to learn in when I was younger. I want to thank Kay, Gary, Val and all the leaders of the Faith Zone. You are such a blessing to us all!

A huge thanks to everyone that has used our St. John’s scrip program. Because of your efforts, we have raised over $4,400 to help support the church and its missions. Please continue to support the program into the new year.

hey everyone @ st. john’s, temps are heating up, days are getting longer, let’s start a thread about our member’s summer vacations & adventures this year!
