You won’t want to miss St. John’s upcoming dinner and auction.
Please plan on joining the parish community for an evening of
festivities, fine dining and bidding on a host of treasures (and don’t
forget to invite your friends!).
Our goal for the auction is to raise enough funds to offset our budget
deficit and fund our Social Ministries program so that St. John’s can
continue its mission to share the Good News of God.
Check out some of the
wonderful items you can bid on:
