Announcements for July 25

• School Supplies Needed
  The following announcement appeared in a recent newsletter from Respond Now: “Many of the children we serve are in need of notebooks, paper, pencils, crayons, erasers, calculators, the list goes on and on. Another critical need is school uniforms. Every year we receive many requests to help purchase uniforms. If anyone has clothes that can be used as uniforms, we would be immensely grateful. It is important that all kids have what they need to start the school year right.” St. John’s has long supported Respond Now’s efforts to help our neighbors here in the south suburbs. If you have any contributions, please bring them to a special box in the west foyer marked “Respond Now School Supplies.”
