St. John’s will be hosting our annual silent auction beginning August 24, 2019 through September 21, 2019. This year, we will have an “Incredible Edibles” category. If you would like to donate an item or two, please see or email Laura Saville or Tina Clutter. The silent auction will benefit the building fund which will be used for the steeple, new social hall or any of our building projects. This is a great fundraiser for our church and we thank everyone for your support! Below are some of the items that are available in our silent auction.
