St. John's will take part in a special offering held in other Sandusky churches also. On Sunday, April 8th, an offering will be gathered in support of Erie County’s Serving Our Seniors “Meals on Wheels” program.

This is an important organization that delivers over 80,000 meals a year to those who are mostly homebound and struggle to cook their own meals or often eat alone. Meals on Wheels provides support and caring volunteers who check in on individuals in our community. MoW is committed to supporting our senior neighbors to live healthier and more nourished lives in their own homes.

We will have a special offering at the back of the church after worship. If you write a check, please make the check payable to St. John’s Lutheran Church with “Meals on Wheels ” noted in the memo line of your check.

We are having a mom-to-mom sale at St. John's on Saturday, May 19th from 9 a.m. to noon.

This is a great opportunity for buying and for selling with more shoppers than at a garage sale, and more people to buy from in one central location.

Please let Pastor Stacy know if you would like a table!
