Makaria&
ONE HAIL MARY A DAY CRUSADE
The Makaria Ministry would like to ask you to say one Hail Mary a day for those in our community who are   suffering from any form of family violence.  We are not asking you to make a pledge, just tell the Blessed Mother what you are saying it for.  By doing this we can form a powerhouse of prayer.  Then the members of our faith community will have the courage to come forward and seek help when it is needed.  This could be our Hail Mary miracle.

PARISH PASTORAL COUNCIL
APPLICATIONS INVITED

The St. John's Parish Pastoral Council (PPC) is a  prayerful visionary group of parishioners responsible for identifying the needs and wants of our Faith  Community and providing leadership for action  programs.  We advise our Pastor and work in collaboration with all parish committees and staff.
Some terms expire this summer so we are seeking replacements from persons with a willingness to prayerfully and energetically provide leadership to our Faith Community.  The Parish Pastoral Council (PPC) normally meets once a month as a large group, and sub-committee meetings are scheduled as needed.  PPC members are assigned as liaison to parish committees and will attend those meetings as well.
If you are interested we invite you to call the Parish  Center and ask for an application.  Please consider whether you are called to help lead us in our collective faith journey.
