Happy Mother’s Day to all the Moms! The board met on Monday April 21st in the lounge. The board would like to thank everyone for the donations of candy. Such cute ideas everyone came up with, we made $240.00, which will be split. $120.00 will be given to the Personal Needs Pantry and $120.00 to WELCA. Don’t forget to help the Card Party out by donating items for door prizes and raffle prizes. The committee does such a wonderful job each year putting this together. Our next project the board is working on will be selling some of the electric roaster we have in the attic. This will take place in June. First we have to see how many still work, then have them brought down from the attic.. If you or someone you know would like one, let us know by June. Our Spaghetti Dinner will be on October 4th from 4pm -7pm. More details will be in our September newsletter. Carry out or dine in this year. Some like to socialize and just relax having dinner. Our next meeting will be May 19th in the lounge. All women of First St. John are welcome to join us.

SCOUTING NEWS
First St. John has been in conversation with the Erie Shores Council of The Boy Scouts of America for establishing a Scouting Pack sponsored by FSJ. At the last Church council meeting approval was given to proceed with organizing the pack which would include both boys and girls according to the recent changes in Scouting by the BSA. Moving forward with this ministry outreach will require assembling a core group of volunteers from the congregation and any supporting groups including the FSJ Day School. These include the core oversight committee to the Cubmaster and Den Leaders. If you feel called to be part of the ministry, please contact Pastor Rayl as soon as possible, 419-691-7222.
