Announcements for May 29
- Sunday School Finale
This Sunday, May 29, during the 10:00 a.m. service, we will celebrate the children’s participation in Sunday School and honor their teachers. We will also thank Donica Van Voorhees for her ministry as Director of Christian Formation.

Ascension Day, one of the seven principal feast days of the church year, always falls forty days after Easter (therefore always on a Thursday). This year Ascension Day is June 2. The Holy Eucharist will be celebrated at 7:00 p.m.
- Parish Picnic: June 5
The annual parish picnic will follow the 10:00 a.m. service next Sunday, June 5. Weather permitting, we will gather on the south lawn. Hot dogs and hamburgers will be provided. Please bring a dessert or side dish to share.
- Parish Office closed for Memorial Day
The parish office will be closed Monday, May 30, in observance of the Memorial Day holiday.
- Looking Ahead: Fourth of July Ice Cream Social
St. John’s ice cream social is a wonderful part of the Fourth of July tradition in Flossmoor. It is our gift to the community. Many volunteers are needed on July 4th, and also for set up and clean up. Contact Gale Michael to volunteer. Also, contributions from parishioners help us continue to offer children’s entertainment at the event and to keep food costs low. Look for donation envelopes around the church.
