Family Prayer
Fourth Sunday of Easter
Many became believers.
- The reading from Acts describes the first missionary outreach of the early church.
- Paul and Barnabas were sent forth by the Holy Spirit to spread the good news.
- When they were rejected by the Jews, Paul and Barnabas decided to bring the message to the Gentiles.
The Lamb at the throne will be their shepherd and will lead them to springs of living water.
- Today’s passage from Revelation was part of a grand vision in which all God’s faithful were gathered.
- The faithful “survived the time of great distress”, which probably refers to persecution of the early church.
- God’s faithful became united with Christ in his death and were sustained in life by him.
I give my sheep eternal life.
- In the Gospel, Jesus describes himself as the Good Shepherd.
- The passage goes on to describe the relationship between Jesus and his Father.
- John stresses the unity between Jesus and the Father.

A Message from Mr. Oberdorf
Dear St. John Parents,
It’s that time of year again when we assess where we are and where we are going. Our School Mission is a community modeling and nurturing Catholic values and academic excellence in partnership with families. We are a stronger school when our parents and our school staff work together, each doing their part to best serve our children.
Your voice is important to our community and our growth, thus we would like to see 100% participation in our 2021-22 school survey. All survey results are confidential. The results will be tallied electronically and reviewed by the school advisory committee. We will use the results of the survey to evaluate where we are and how to best serve our school community in the future.
Please take a few moments to click on the link below and complete the survey. There is space for comments after each question. Comments are appreciated, but not necessary.
Thank you in advance for completing the survey.
Any questions or concerns please contact the school office at 414-321-8540.
Sincerely,
Ben Oberdorf
Principal
