SUMMARY:"Cottage Meetings" for capital campaign
DESCRIPTION:In 2024-2025\, St. John’s is undertaking the second capital campaign in the parish’s history. The first step in the campaign is discernment — coming together to dream about and discuss what God is calling this community to do and be\, so we can decide where to direct our resources and ministries. So that as many people as possible can be part of this conversation\, we’re holding a series of small group “cottage meetings” in the first two weeks of October — some at people’s homes\, others at church. Each meeting will be about 90 minutes\, and light refreshments will be served. Click here to sign up for one that works for your schedule.
