STEWARDSHIP

Shine Your Light Program

The Stewardship Committee is asking our members to record their hours of volunteering during the Lenten Season this year.  Members are asked to record 2 categories of volunteer hours:  In Church Volunteer Hours   and  Volunteer Hours in the Community.  This program is designed to help us better understand how our members  are “the body of Christ in the world today.”  We can teach each other and our youth how we are carrying the mission and ministry of Jesus out into the world.  Members are asked to fill out a form and place completed forms in the lighthouse box on Easter Sunday.

THE FIVE

The Five

We at St. John’s UCC Allentown are blessed to have several retired ministers in our congregation. We are also fortunate that five of them have stepped forward and agreed to lead our congregation during the interim period between ministers. They will be rotating through the pulpit and dividing up the other duties of the minister. It will be an exciting time and a time to learn as we move through these next few months with our interim Ministerial Team. (more…)
