Opportunities for Fellowship

As Christians we seek to give of ourselves in community.  St. John’s affords a variety of opportunities for our members to do just that.  In addition to service opportunities listed elsewhere, the following groups provide fellowship at St. John’s.

Anglican Church Women (ACW)

This group of women meets once a month to discuss how the group can be of general assistance to parish and rector.  Women of the parish also meet to plan for special events and to work on craft items for various benefits.

Manawi

This group’s name is a combination of the words “man” and “wife.”  Through the years, however, the group has expanded to include single persons as well as couples.  Activities are usually scheduled on a monthly basis.  Some traditional social events are the St. Patrick’s Day party and the Annual Parish Picnic.  All church members are automatically Manawi members.

Parish Events

Several traditional events at St. John’s provide opportunities for fellowship and friendship including pot luck dinners and the annual parish picnic in the summer.  At Christmas parishioners decorate the church with evergreens and poinsettias.  The Seder meal is celebrated frequently on Maundy Thursday.  A variety of tasty treats and refreshments are served at the Sunday coffee hour following the Sunday service at which time birthdays are celebrated and other announcements made.

End of Month Club

This monthly luncheon or dinner gathering on the last Thursday of the month is primarily an opportunity for fellowship while visiting various restaurants in the area.  We welcome all our members and their friends.
