May 2025

Dear St John’s Church family,

Our theme this past Lenten and Easter season has been “Walking with Jesus to the Cross” followed by the April/May message series “Spiritual Blooming.” The transition into this special month of May is exciting as we plan to celebrate our National Day of Prayer in the Crown Point Square at noon on Thursday May 1. Hopefully you are able to make time for this city-wide energizing event! America needs to pray!

On May 11 we will honor our mothers for a time of love and reflection. May God bless our ladies in all they do to encourage and love their families.  You all are in our daily prayers!

 In conjunction with our 3rd Sunday Singing on May 18 we are excited again to hear a brief testimony from Lindsey Smit.  Many prayers have been offered for baby Colten and the Smit family. Plan to be with us and see how God continues to bless this special family!

We will conclude the month on May 25th with an Armed Services Salute for Memorial weekend. I’m always excited to honor all those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for the freedoms that we enjoy!  Freedom is never free! May God bless America!

Share your faith in Jesus with family, friends and neighbors.  Let our witness for Christ bloom with May’s flowers. We must proclaim the name of our Lord!  It’s going to be a great month!

 

In Christ,

Pastor Wendell
