Dear Parents, Grandparents, and Fellow Parishioners,
I hope that this Faith Formation Newsletter finds you navigating the continued differences in life with grace.
May God fill you with ideas, lots of people in your family’s safety-net, and great confidence as you journey.
At the end of this month, we will kick-off our Faith Formation Programs! Please look at
the registration letter for more information. I want you all to know that Chelsea, Therese, and I are here for you! We are here to help you with the methods that work best for your family, make sure to communicate any needs that you may have with us.
As you probably have already heard, Amy Bonte is stepping down from directing our PK-4 programs, and Therese McHenry is stepping in (more info in last week’s bulletin). We will miss Amy tremendously, and yet, Therese will bring new ideas, continued creativity, and lots of wonderful options to the ministry. Amy, Ty, and the girls will continue to journey with St. John’s as their faith community and church home! Take a look at Therese’s video to introduce herself in the Elementary section of this Newsletter.
For Adult Formation, I will be leading a Bible Study via Zoom (Tues evenings/Wed mornings), we will continue to have retreat ministry during our Advent and Lent seasons, with Dan Schutte joining us for our Lenten Retreat!
We will move back into a weekly newsletter when the children’s programs begin at the end of September.
With love and blessings,
Joan
