BLESSINGS & BACKPACKS

Every Friday, volenteers from St. John’s will meet to pack food for the weekend into backpacks for 35 students at Hobe Sound Elementary School every weekend. Please see Connie Monsma or Diana Palaskas to offer your time to this worthwhile ministry.

MAKING A DIFFERENCE
Joining the National Philoptochos Society initiative to ‘Make A Difference” in our local communities. During the month of October, they plan to ‘Make a Difference’ in our community by holding a dry dog and cat food drive and donating this pet food to our local animal shelters.
