It is a tradition at St. John’s to present fleece-tied blankets to our graduating seniors who would like one; this year was no different!

VETERANS BRUNCH was held on May 5, 2024.
THANK YOU to our VETERANS! A brunch was held on Sunday, May 5, to honor our Veterans. A wonderful meal was served, and all enjoyed a program from the Custom Canines group – they volunteer their time to train the dogs to help Veterans with PTSD or other challenges. We want to thank Dana Hoffman and Vicki Witherspoon for their help serving and cleaning up. – Cal Gilbertson
WELCA SALAD LUNCHEON was held on Thursday, May 9, 2024
A big thank you to all the women who so generously donated salads, cookies, or cash this year to the salad luncheon. We had a total of 98 women and men attend our event. Ondra Williams, John Cuta, Kent Willians (Ondra’s dad), and Dennis Josi, provided a wonderful musical program, along with a few jokes.
I also want to thank the women who helped set up, serve, and clean up.
Also a big thank you to the men who put all the tables and chairs away for another event that followed ours. We made $1,050.00, which will be used to support St. John’s youth, our devotional books (Christ in the Home), and kitchen supplies. It was a great day for everyone to enjoy a wonderful meal and good fellowship. We are so richly blessed here at St. John’s.
– Bonnie Gilbertson, Chair
