Load a Truck

Load A Truck

Our thanks go to Bob Loop for organizing "Load a Truck Sunday" which was held on June 7. The congregation collected and delivered 1,784 pounds of food. Another round of thanks to John Berquist, Matt Micelli, and Fred Joerman for their truck ans assistance delivering the donations to the Food Bank of Lower Fairfield County. In addition, the congregation collected $1,085 in monetary donations and WELCA contributed $1,000, for a total of $2,085 that was given to the food bank.

We thank our all parishioners for their generosity as we came together on June 7th with other faith communities in Stamford to do God's work, with our hands.

Forty Days - Forty Items

The Social Ministry Committee has a challenge for you.  Each day of Lent, remove one gently-used item from your closet or household, and put it into a trash bag.  Blue bags will be available in the narthex or back of the Chapel, or use a bag of your own.  Return your bags any Sunday between April 8th and 22nd.  Some items will be used for Midnight Run; most will be sold at our joint tag sale with First United Methodist Church on April 27-28.  Last year we raised over $2,500 for charities!

Support Our Youth

Help Support Our Teens

Six of our youth and two chaperones will travel to Houston, TX, this summer for the ELCA Youth Gathering. They will join over 30,000 other teens for worship, service, and learning. Click here to see a brief video made by the attending youth.

There are four ways you can support the youth attending the Gathering:

  1. Envelopes: Take one or more of the envelopes in the narthex or back of the chapel. Each envelope has a number. Place a donation of that amount in the envelope and place it in the offering plate.
  2. Donate online through the church website at www.stjohnelca.org. Click “Giving;” under “Other,” write “Youth Gathering.”
  3. Go to GoFundMe site and make a contribution.
  4. Remember Max, Jenna, Betsy, Lex, Zack, and Fiona in your prayers.

Thank you for supporting youth from St. John's!
