Volunteer Sign-Ups For Annual Picnic
September 29, 2024
Our Parish-Wide Picnic is scheduled for
Sunday, September 29, 11:30-3:00. We on the vestry hope that it will be a fun and joyous event to attend. The rewards of being together to celebrate life and each other are many: restore and encourage God's love; strengthen ties between us in the parish; and contribute to creating community in our hometown of Washington and surrounding areas. In short, this is a great opportunity for church outreach and spreading joy, so please invite family and friends to join us!

St. John's Reading Club
CURRENT SELECTION
Brian Moore's "The Colour off Blood" to
gather for a Group Discussion via ZOOM, so start reading now.
The Colour of Blood is a political thriller about Stephen Bem, a Cardinal in an unnamed East European country who is in conflict with the Roman Catholic Church hierarchy and finds himself caught in the middle of an escalating revolution, where held against his will at a safe house after an assignation attempt, Cardinal Bem is unsure whether his captors work for the government or for the Catholic Church.
The St. John's Reading Club is open to the public and meets regularly via ZOOM to discuss a novel previously selected. It is assumed that all participants will have already read the book by the time of the meeting, at which all will be welcome to discuss their reactions to the work with all the others gathered.
