Current
Council Project
The March Council Project is St. John's emergency
help fund. This fund exists to assist those within our
congregation who suddenly find themselves in situations where they
need temporary financial help. These decisions are made by the
pastors and the Board of Elders usually, but not exclusively, on a
one-time basis. Because this is a non-budgetary fund, the amount
available for distribution is dependent upon the contributions of
our members. If you’d like to contribute to this
project, please use your green Above & Beyond envelope or the
special envelope on the display. Checks should be made
payable to St. John's and marked “Council Project.”
