The St. John’s Committes are defined by the church Constitution and designed to maintain the worship vitality, spiritual health, outreach efforts and physical properties of the church community. A Church Council Representative is appointed for a one year term to maintain the activities of the committee. That representative is not necessarily the chairperson or the person responsible for its activities. The church membership is welcomed and encouraged to join these committees so their continued existence has consistent direction and activity to assure the vibrancy of our church life.

Purpose:

Fellowship shall have as its basic objectives the strengthening of the fellowship between congregational members spiritually and socially: the integration of new members into the life of the congregation; planning and implementation of outreach events in which the large community’s participation is invited; and the general building of mutual cooperation, trust and enjoyment among the members of the congregation. .
