Join us Saturday, November 9 to welcome our new music director, Johannes Stosch, and his wife, Clara Cheng Stosch, and Patrick McHonett — our new St. John's Head of School — and his wife, Jessica McHonett.
This event is St. John's primary fundraiser for the year! Funds raised will benefit St. John's as well as help ensure that our music ministry continues to flourish!
This very special evening will include:
• 5 p.m. church service, with music provided by Johannes, Clara, and special guests
• 6 p.m. appetizers, Italian main, desserts, and non-alcoholic drinks (you're welcome to bring your own wine and beer)
• Live music
• St. John's Experiences Auction (see below) and great raffles
Tickets are $50 per person. Tickets will also be available for purchase via check/cash on Sundays after services beginning October 13, and in the church office Monday-Friday, 9 am. -5 p.m. beginning October 14.
Childcare: We have a fantastic childcare opportunity during the adults-only event: CalElite Gym in RSM is offering a 20% discount for St. John's families who would like to drop their children at Parents Night Out! Children are welcome to attend the church service at 5 p.m., but the dinner event is adults only as alcohol will be present. Register directly with CalElite no later than November 1 to take advantage of the discount (https://app.iclasspro.com/parentportal/elitekidsrsm/camps?new-url&camptype=91 then select *St. John's Only*).
We would like all to attend! However, if you don't have funds for a ticket, please contact Rev Karen and she will secure your attendance. Thank you!
St. John’s Experience Auction During the FUNdraising Event:
We need you for the “St. John's Experiences” silent auction! Want to learn more about one another, do fun things together, and make new friends? Here's how:
• We'd like parishioners to donate an opportunity to do something together. For example, Patrick and Jessica McHonett's auction item is dinner and an escape room experience!
• We're looking for ways to create memories — so merchandise like gift baskets aren't needed. Put your heads together, then enter your auction donation at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/StJohns2019auction — or fill out a form in the Narthex.
• If you don't have an experience to offer, consider sponsoring part of the event such as the tablecloth rental, the desserts, or tickets for those who do not have the funds to attend.
• Questions? Or need feedback on an auction item idea? Contact Erin Schwarz, erinschwarz@yahoo.com.
