Cathedral Ministry Fair

THIS SUNDAY

Following services

St. John’s is a fully inclusive community where anyone can become involved in the church and its various ministries. Visit our Ministry Fair to gather information about the various teams, committees, organizations, and educational opportunities that are available within the community. Come ready to ask questions and learn how you can share your gifts within cathedral life. Foster a deeper realization about your baptismal call to be a disciple of Christ.

Interim Dean and Priest-in-Charge's Note

Dear Friends,

This Sunday after the 8am & 10am services St. John’s Cathedral will host a Ministry Fair as a way for everyone to learn about the numerous ways to be involved in the life of our church. We will have twenty-one ministries represented by dedicated and active members, who will happily tell you more about what they do and the level of commitment needed.

Some of these ministries happen before, during, or after church services on Sunday, while other ministries happen online. There are opportunities to gather physically at church both during the week and on Saturdays. Members and volunteers support worship in word and voice, use gifts and abilities on projects, and serve on committees working in partnership with clergy to provide leadership. There is something for everyone, and you are most welcome to join us. Special thanks to our Parish Life ministry team for their leadership and support.

There are ministries that require active membership of St. John’s Cathedral. Membership is defined as someone committed to following Jesus, who attends church regularly, who has made a pledge of financial support, and seeks to be involved. We hope to see you! You are invited to grow in faith.

Much love and blessings,

Anne+

Gardening Ministry

Normally our garden ministry meets on the first Saturday of the month. Because of an upcoming Choral Festival, we will move our Gardening from October 5 to this Saturday

So grab your gloves and join us on the lawn. Help us care for the earth. We will weed, cut, prune, fertilize, plant, mulch, and water, as well as share stories and gardening tips in good humor and fellowship. If you enjoy getting your fingernails and knees dirty, join the St. John's Gardening Ministry. Contact the parish office to sign up. Feel free to bring your favorite gardening tools!

Guibord Center Presents - Sacred Drumming: Building Community through West African Sounds and Spirituality

TOMORROW

7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

This event will take place here at St. John’s Cathedral. In these challenging times, many of us yearn for connection and community. This event is a unique opportunity to come together, share in the vibrant rhythms of Guinea, West Africa, and engage with the rich tapestry of Indigenous Spirituality. Drumming is not just an art; it is a powerful means of awakening the heart and reconnecting us to the Earth and each other. Join us as we celebrate the communal spirit that drumming embodies, fostering understanding, compassion, and support among us all. Your presence will surely add to the richness of our shared experience, and we wholeheartedly invite you to partake in this journey of unity and empowerment across diverse spiritual traditions.
