COMMUNITY
For the community-minded individual
Your one-time gift or monthly donation will help St. John's to continue to do good work through community partnerships with organizations such as Community Care Thorold, the Migrant Farm Workers' Project and One Thorold.
Also, your gift will allow us to continue our outreach work through our free Sunday Lunches and the collection of hats, mitts and scarves and toiletry items for our Thorold neighbours.
FAITH, MILESTONES AND MEMORIES
For the everyday work of the church
St. John's provides opportunities to worship, pray, celebrate, heal, question and love.
Your one-time gift or monthly donation to the everyday work of the church enables us to extend our footprint in the world through various platforms and initiatives.
We know that we are part of a larger story. This building, this church, and this ministry here at St. John's is bigger than just this moment.
Help us to faithfully live out who God is calling us to be—for generations to come.
SAFE SPACE
For the practical individual
Your one-time gift or monthly donation will help St. John's to continue to provide a safe and well-maintained space for community groups to gather. Girl Guides, Alcoholics Anonymous, exercise groups, music and art groups, and various non-profit organizations use our space on a regular basis.
We give thanks for God's abundance allowing us to have this facility and would appreciate any assistance to keep pace with its rising costs.
Supporting your church through a gift to fund building upkeep ensures that our doors remain open to all who seek the love and solace of our church community.
LEARNING & DISCERNING
For the curious and the questioner
Giving the gift of learning supports our Sunday School, Kids' Talks during services, intergenerational events and activities, adult faith formation groups, and opportunities to be a part of worship services.
We bring our wonderings, questions and doubts. We journey together in our uncertainty and our discovery.
Your one-time gift or monthly donation will help St. John's help one another to continue learning and discerning who God is calling us to be.
Together, we reflect the love and the generosity that we have been given by sharing it with others—creating a ripple of positivity that extends far beyond our own lives and continues to brighten the world
Your one-time gift or monthly donation
WILL make a
difference!
SOCIAL JUSTICE
For the social justice advocate
Your support will help make a difference as we, as a part of the One Thorold organization, look at concerns around affordable housing, addiction issues, neighbourhoods, and building community.
Also, St. John's works to broaden our understanding of our Indigenous peoples-- partnering with the City of Thorold as part of a movement toward healing through Truth and Reconciliation.
Your one-time gift or monthly donation will help us to continue to examine our beliefs, to join voices in advocacy and to call for action.
Share it, Live it, Be Bold with it!
