Preparing for Pastor Otto and family to arrive!

As we prepare for the arrival of Pastor Otto and his family, here are some opportunities for you:

• Gift Card Shower - Throughout May, we are collecting gift cards to ease the burden and expense of starting over in a new place. In addition to the practical Target, Walmart, and gas card options, you are encouraged to consider a gift card to one of the Mexican restaurants near St. John (i.e. East 7th/Payne Ave/Arcade.) That way, we can help Pastor Otto make connections in the neighborhood while providing meals for the family! Cards may be dropped off in the church office. Please enclose in an envelope and mark "Gift Card Shower."
• Picture directory - To help Ottos get to know us, we are asking each household to submit a recent photo of your family along with preferred names. These will go into a homemade directory. Please email them to the church office at jtholl@stjohnev.net by May 22.
• Continue to PRAY for Pastor, Jenny, JJ, Evan, Paul, and Mayah!

If you have questions or if you would like to help in any way, see Tamara Julian or Pastor Al.
