From time to time St. John’s is responsible for providing worship to the residents of Mankato area nursing homes. In the past, Fr. Paul has done these mostly on his own and now he’d like to share the joy. And it is such a wonderful joy to be able to share God’s Word and to sing and pray with our elderly neighbors!

We are looking for volunteers to assist Fr. Paul in this important ministry. No special talent is necessary, but if you play a musical instrument or like to tell stories, or read, that’d be great! Volunteer duties may include, but are not limited to: assisting the residents with songbooks, showing hospitality, bringing a smile to the hearts of those who are lonely, and encouraging participation among the worshippers.

This ministry involves one hour of your time on a Wednesday afternoon approximately four times per year. Please call the Church Office at 388.1969 or speak to Fr. Paul if you would like to be put on this volunteer list. Many elderly are unable to worship in their own church on Sunday. This ministry is a wonderful opportunity to share God’s love with them!
