Mission Statement
St. John’s Parish family prayerfully worships, studies, teaches and lives our faith in Jesus Christ.
A Note from Father Yanta
Welcome to St. John’s
Next weekend we will be officially kicking
off the Treasure portion of our drive. This drive will offer
you the opportunity to reaffirm your commitment to the
operations fund for St. John the Baptist, and also for an
extraordinary gift for our Special Mortgage Appeal.
Pray for Our Sick
Thank you to everyone who has
completed and turned in your Time and
Talent commitment forms. We will
continue to collect them in the parish
office and through the offertory baskets
over the next few weeks.
I would like to thank all of you for your ongoing support of
our parish and ask you to prayerfully consider giving to both
appeals as generously as your situation allows.
Thank you to the parishioners who have graciously offered
to be on our leadership team for the upcoming Stewardship
Drive for our Annual Operations and Special Mortgage

In an effort to be more financially transparent, we are
planning to provide the September Stewardship Report at
the end of October 2014. Moving forward, we will
continue to provide a Monthly Stewardship Report in the
bulletin by the middle of the month.
Note:
* The Total Monthly Operations Budget for 2014 currently
shows our Total Budget of $562,000 divided by 12 months.
We are currently working on distributing the Total Budget
of $562,000 on a monthly basis.
** On the July Stewardship Report, the correct July 2013
YTD Shortfall figure should have been ($6,798) not
($11,665).
Please contact the parish office with questions or comments.
Each year at tax time, we conscientiously
give “to Caesar what belongs to Caesar.”
Does my stewardship indicate that I am as
faithful about giving “to God what belongs to
God”?
St. John’s welcomes Christopher David Brandtner,
son of Jonathan & Nicole Brandtner, who was
baptized here on September 28th by Father Yanta.
Thank You
We would like to thank everyone who helped comfort us at
the time of our loss of Curt. Thank you to everyone who
brought food and helped serve the lunch. Special thanks to
Father Yanta, the Mass servers, organist and soloist.
