The usher committee consists of 10 teams with each team serving 2 months out of the church year. Each team takes turns serving the worship service during the summer months (1-2 Sundays) and special worship services.  There are over 50 men, women and confirmation students serving on the usher teams.  New members are always welcome. Please contact the parish sectretary for further details.

Every Tuesday morning at 8:30 the ladies of the church gather to make quilts for Lutheran World Relief. They are then shipped all over the world for relief efforts sponsored by LWR. If you have sewing talents and wish to make a difference for those less fortunate then this group may be calling you. For further details please call the parish secretary.

The Skaalen Home is located in Stoughton Wisconsin. It provides daily care for our senior Lutheran brethren. St. John’s church members are called to volunteer there periodically. For more information you may contact Phylis Garbrecht.

All confirmed members of St. John’s are invited to assist at Saturday and Sunday worship services. The ministerial assistant will actively participate in presentation of the service alongside the minister. Additional contributions to the service include communion servers, lector for the epistle, ushering and audio/visual operators. For further details of those responsibilities and to volunteer your services please contact the pastor.

Other ministries include:

• Assembling bulletins and visionotes when volunteers are needed.
• Assisting with Monday morning of counting offerings.
• Delivering sermon tapes to the shut-ins.
• Maintaining “Quiet Time” bags with new colors, coloring books, etc.

Families and church groups are invited to offer the congregation the fruits of their baking talents following Sunday service. Coffee and juice supplies are provided by the church. You may sign up with the church secretary or on the bulletin board in the narthex.
