An Easy Way to Support St. John's School!

One of the easiest ways to support St. John's, our parish school, is by linking your store rebate/savings cards to St. John's School.

St. John's School is registered with school fundraising programs through Giant, Target, McKay's and Food Lion Stores. You can help our school earn dollars by simply designating St. John's School as the school to benefit each time you shop at these stores. Just remember - St. John's benefits only when you use your bonus card each time you shop! It's automatic once you link your cards to our school!

You can register your cards online by following the links on this page: Store Rebate Programs - Click Here!

Please take 5 minutes to register your cards. Then you'll support St. John's School the whole year! (Please note: several stores require you to reenroll your cards each year.)

As always, thanks for supporting St. John's School!

Apologetics Course Beginning Sept. 11th - Consider Attending!

An Apologetics Course will begin on Sunday, September 11th in the St. Jude Room immediately following the 9am Mass (from 10:05-11:20). Registration fee is $25 to cover the cost of books and materials.


Have you ever struggled with trying to explain or defend our Catholic Faith? How do you respond when someone asks you “have you been saved?” or “why do you worship Mary?” (we don’t by the way) or “why do you baptize babies when the Bible is clear that only adults should be baptized?” (wrong again) or when asked about another aspect of the Faith that is commonly misunderstood? Have you wondered what other religions/faiths believe and why some of them are so adamantly opposed to the Catholic Church? We’ll be tackling those types of questions and misconceptions in an Adult Apologetics Course that will be offered at the same time as Sunday morning Religious Education. Learn how to define and defend the Catholic Faith as we are all called to do through the Sacrament of Confirmation. If your children attend Sunday morning Religious Education, this is a great way to occupy your time while they’re in class. All adults are welcome. Ken Scheiber, a theology teacher at St. Mary’s Ryken, holds a master’s degree in theology and will be teaching this course.
