LENTEN DAILY DEVOTION

Every weekday during Lent, we will feature a different short Daily Devotion on Face Book and Instagram. We welcome your participation- individually, as a family, etc. Each day has a bible verse and a devotion prompt to help you. Then put your own personality in it- with a picture, story, music, etc. You will be contacted by a staff member, who will guide you through the process.

SPIRITUAL DIRECTION

with MOTHER CATHERINE

Mother Catherine is now offering Spiritual Direction at St. John’s. Spiritual direction, also known as spiritual companionship, is an interpersonal relationship formed to support individuals as they attempt to deepen their relationship with the divine, seek spiritual discernment around various life events or transitions, or to learn and grow in their personal spirituality.

You will meet regularly with Mother Catherine, typically once per month; there is no charge for the sessions and generally the length is one hour and can be arranged to fit your schedule. All sessions are completely confidential. Contact the office if you are interested in setting up an appointment: 516-671-3226

SUNDAY SCHOOL

Join us on

Sunday, March 14th - 10:30 am

in Parish Hall

Last Sunday School (pictured above) we made Lenten Bell Pulls. Bell Pulls are a French tradition where a strip of beautiful fabric, hanging on a wall was pulled setting off bells for tea or wood for the fireplace. A few years ago we decided to revive the bell pull for a very special reason! We would make one so we we could ring for Jesus! Especially for Lent so he’d come pray with us and us for Him! And the carrots? Well they help us know that Lent turns into Easter. And as much as Easter rabbits like carrots, we find the Word of God in the Bible super yummy and good for us. We just think Lent needs some love because like His Birth, his saving love on the Cross is all part of the greatest real live and truest story ever told. ~ Miss Courtney

OUR MUSIC

LET THE BELLS PEAL!

Celebrate a special birthday, anniversary, or memorialize a loved one with a peal of our wonderful carillon bells. We will arrange a peal on the Sunday closest to the date you choose- after the 10:30 am service. Suggested donation: $50.00
