This past October 17th & 18th, the St. John family held our annual Oyster, Ham or Chicken Dinner, with over 1,100 meals served. Pastor Mark, the OHC Dinner Committee and the entire congregation extend their heartfelt “thank you” to everyone who attended or helped in any way. Funds raised from this year’s event will support, in part, Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) of Cape May and Atlantic County and the St. John Lutheran Youth Organization (for their trip to the National Youth Gathering in 2012). We would like to especially acknowledge and thank Boyar’s Market for their help and support.

You'll find an envelope in your pew bulletin which encourages you to go one step further in helping our St. John family meet its budget. Skip a soda, cup of coffee, or bottle of water each week, and put the $2 in the envelope.
Food Cupboard 
The Food Cupboard requests canned meats (beef stew, Spam, and 1 lb canned hams) for the month of January. In February they would appreciate receiving canned fruit. They can always use juice, Jell-O, dry milk, diapers, and brown paper bags. Food drop-off is located in the church lobby. People receiving food stamps may only purchase food products, so there is also a need for paper products, hand soap, dish & laundry detergent, and personal items such as deodorant, shaving cream, shampoo, toothbrushes and toothpaste.
