UNDERWEAR DRIVE
ICE CREAM SOCIAL Wednesday, August 5 4:30 pm—7:00 pm
There is a great need for new underwear for under privileged families in our community. We want to reach out to these families and let them know that St. John UCC cares for them and their children. This undergarment drive will take place during the month of July. A Laundry basket can be found in the Narthex for your donations. Thank you!
Everyone is invited to this annual get together for an evening of Ice Cream, BBQ, friendship and more. We have always enjoyed this fundraising event and been grateful for all the help many of you have given to make this a success! If you can help again this year please sign up on the bulletin board.

COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIPS Deadline for Applications • Sunday, July 19 We at St John’s UCC are blessed with the generosity of our members and friends who have given toward a college scholarship fund. The funds come from the Kampmeier Endowment Fund, memorials, and gifts designated for college scholarships. Persons who are active members, as defined by the church constitution, are invited to apply. While we cannot specify the exact amount of the awards until all applications are received, applicants should anticipate some assistance with books and supplies, rather than a substantial grant. Persons wishing to apply should pick up an application from the church office. Once completed, the applications, should be returned to the church office in an envelope marked “College Scholarship”. Applicants will need to submit also an acceptance letter or fall schedule from the school they intend to attend. The deadline for application is July 19th.. Questions? Call the church office. 1
