Why not give dear ol' Dad something sweet on his special day? Respect Life Ministry will have freshly baked cookies for sale on Father's Day weekend for a free will donation. Proceeds will be used to sponsor Pro-Life activities. So give Dad a treat while showing you're Pro-Life!

The Respect Life Committee will be holding a

As you go through your end of the school year supplies, please save any unused/gently used materials (papers, pencils, crayons, markers, glue, scissors) for the children at Loaves & Fishes to be used in the summer.  We are also accepting children's reading and activity books. Garage Sales are great places to pick up inexpensive children's books.  There will be containers for you to drop off your donation items in the Church narthex and the school beginning June 1 until June 10.

The St. Joe's 150th Anniversary Committee is going to celebrate our history in yet another way. We need your help to fill the showcases in the Social Hall with artifacts and mementos from St. Joe's past. If you have any items that relate to the old church or school, we would love to borrow them for the display.

So, dig around in your attics and closets and see if you can find something that brings a smile to your face and a fond memory of your church or school. Just drop them off at the church office any time during the weeks ahead. Put your name and phone number on them, and if there is a story that goes with the item- please share it. They will be promptly returned after our Harvest Festival 150th Anniversary Weekend celebration that concludes on September 16, 2018.
