Notes From the Office: February 1st, 2021

Greetings,

We had an excellent open house for St. John School on Sunday. There is a great deal of interest from new families who would like to have their children attend our school. Remember, current families can register this week and guarantee a spot for next year. Next week we open enrollment to parishioners and then to the public. Most of our classes had a waiting list this year. Next year will be a very exciting year for St. John School, so I hope you join us.

This week is Catholic Schools Week. We will be celebrating with fun activities throughout the week. We are very fortunate to have a school where the specific purpose is to form students to be good citizens, love God and neighbor and enrich society with the gospel and by an example of faith.

I would like to thank students, parents, teachers, and staff for making St. John School a great place to grow in mind and spirit!  Happy 100th day of school!

God bless and take care,

Dan Mardell

Principal

“The family, is so to speak, the domestic church.” (Lumen Gentium #11)

We are excited to announce that we have partnered with Good Shepherd to bring CHRIST IN MY HOME Ministry to SSFJ!  Each week, a short video (no more than 10 minutes!) will be sent via email and posted on our SSFJ website. The videos will help you prepare for the following week's Gospel along with practical ideas for building your "domestic church".   It is our hope that you will set aside a time  to view the video as a family and invite Christ in to your everyday living!

Videos and discussion questions will be emailed out on Sunday afternoons and posted on the SSFJ Facebook Page & the SSFJ Website.
