Prayer of the Day: God of the ages, our hearts are filled with gratitude as we enter this season of celebration. How blessed we have been as we consider the good work begun in you 130 years ago. Thank you for your unwavering faithfulness. We praise you for the steadfast foundation you have given us in Jesus our rock and redeemer. Lord, we bless you, for the generational tapestry of this congregation and the legacy of faith and love which has been rich beyond measure. Embolden, encourage and empower us and all who follow in the years to come that we might continue to love in the name of Jesus. May St. John’s always serve as a city on a hill to this community and a beacon of hope to all who enter through our doors. Bring to completion all that we do to your glory and for the good of others.  This we pray in the name of Jesus who is our chief cornerstone. Amen.
