UPCOMING EVENTS

 

Who are St. John's parishioners?

Our Parish is a vibrant parish with some Families having two to three generations still able to attend Mass together. Most of our Families bring their children for Baptism. Our Families bring their children here for their First Reconciliation/First Communion/Confirmation Sacraments. Many of our Families have their children returning for Marriage. Our Families bring their loved ones back for their Funerals of Christian Burial. And, most come back to celebrate Easter Holy Week and Christmas. We are asking all who attend SJE to think about how they may help the parish financially. Just $50 per month, which is $600 per year, would help us greatly, but all donations of any size are most appreciated. Remember: there is a tax benefit to all donations, which assists you and assists us.

Another way to contribute to the health and happiness of your Parish is through a donation of time. Do you have a talent or gift that would be very useful for the Parish in the coming months? God gave them that you might share them: we hope you will.

Remember: SJE is not merely our grandparents’ or parents’ Church, it now becomes our Church as well. Your generous donation today guarantees Church that the Church will still be here for you, your children, and grandchildren tomorrow.

  • How many people have celebrated each of the 7 Sacraments

  • How many families are active in our parish?

  • Are they donating treasure (money) and/or time (volunteering)?

  • How many families use envelopes and/or donate through other means?
    Pre-authorized donations, e-transfer or  Visa.

  • How much money is being donated for “Parish Fund” donations? 

Parish Fund donations funds pay for the everyday needs of our Church: salaries, power, gas, insurance, maintenance of our over-60-year-old building, and most importantly the celebration of Mass itself. 

 

 

 

Together We Serve

Welcome to the 2023 Together We Serve Campaign:

ONE CHURCH. ONE GIFT.

Your gift to Together We Serve enables us to do so much more as One Church, than we could ever do individually. That is the POWER OF ONE!

  • Your One Gift to Together We Serve will help our newest recipient, St. Vincent de Paul Edmonton Central Council, provide leadership and support to 19 local conferences, serving over 7,000 people in need in our communities.
  • Your One Gift will help Our Lady of Victory Youth Camp re-open this summer to at least 250 young campers – our Catholic leaders of tomorrow.
  • Your One Gift will bring hope to over 20,000 vulnerable Albertans served by Catholic Social Services.
  • Your One Gift will support 39 Seminarians and almost 200 students at St. Joseph Seminary and Newman Theological College.
  • Your One Gift will help to provide a home-away-from-home for 300 students in St. Joseph’s College residence and hundreds more who take its faith-based courses.
  • Your One Gift will help to nurture the faith of 28,000 mostly Indigenous [Dene, Métis, and Inuvialuit] Catholics in the northern Diocese of Mackenzie-Fort Smith.
  • Your One Gift to Together We Serve shows that we are One Church, commissioned by One Lord, to bring the Gospel to a world in need.

Please give today!

Together We Serve is an annual appeal in the Catholic Archdiocese of Edmonton. It was launched in 2014 to simplify giving by combining recurring special collections in parishes and inviting Catholics to work together to serve those in need at home, in Canada, and abroad. Together We Serve shows both Catholics and those around us that we are all one Church, acting together to advance the Mission given to us by Jesus Christ.

For more information or to donate to the 2023 Together We Serve campaign (and credit it towards your parish’s target), visit: https://caedm.ca/togetherweserve.

St. John the Evangelist's 2023 Target is $42,000. 


As of December 8th we are $37,818.00  - 90%.
If each family is able to give an extra $20.00 per month for November and December we should be able to make our Target

Please consider a monthly donation for Together We Serve.

Thank you kindly.
